Bishop Joseph, a beacon of faith during the dark times of communist Romania, steadfastly defended the Orthodox faith. Imprisoned and tortured for refusing to compromise his beliefs, he emerged unbroken, continuing to serve his flock with unwavering devotion after his release. His life exemplified spiritual courage, a testament to the power of faith against oppression.

Lord, may the prayers of Saint Joseph intercede for us, granting us strength to remain true to Your word in the face of adversity.
