Priest-Confessor John of Galeş, during the communist regime, served secretly, risking imprisonment to administer sacraments and offer spiritual guidance. He transformed his home into a clandestine chapel, becoming a beacon of faith for those persecuted. Arrested and brutally interrogated, he never betrayed his flock, enduring suffering with unwavering resolve. He passed away in 1983, leaving behind a legacy of courage and deep pastoral love.
Holy #Priest John, intercede for us before the throne of #God! May your example strengthen our faith in times of trial. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Confessor
