Saint Gherasim, a monk at Tismana Monastery, faced martyrdom for defending his faith during a period of religious conflict. He refused to renounce Orthodoxy, even when threatened by invaders demanding the monastery's wealth and conversion. Gherasim was tortured and ultimately beheaded for his unwavering devotion. His sacrifice became a symbol of resistance and a testament to the strength of faith.
Holy Venerable Martyr Gherasim of Tismana, intercede for us, that we may stand firm in our #Faith and witness to the truth. May your courage inspire us to defend what is right. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Martyr #Tradition
