Bishop Bretanion of Tomis, in the 4th century, faced Emperor Valens, an Arian, who demanded he commune with Arian heretics. Bretanion refused, standing firm for the Nicene Creed. Banished, he returned after Valens's death, leading his flock back to orthodoxy. His courage ensured the true faith prevailed in Scythia Minor.
Lord, grant us Bretanion's strength to uphold truth.
