Venerable Theodora, once a wealthy woman, embraced monasticism after her husband's death. Seeking deeper solitude, she retreated to the Carpathian Mountains. Living in a cave near Sihla Monastery, she endured harsh conditions, battling temptations and finding solace in unceasing prayer. Her repentance was so profound, her dedication so complete, that God granted her miraculous gifts, including healing. Her life exemplified the transformative power of faith.

Holy Theodora, pray to God for us!
