Venerable Cleopa, as a young monk, was once questioned by communist authorities about harboring anti-government partisans. He replied, "I fear God alone." Impressed by his courage and conviction, the officials released him, recognizing the depth of his faith. He later became a spiritual guide to thousands, teaching them to stand firm in their beliefs amidst persecution.

Lord, through the prayers of #VenerableCleopa, strengthen our resolve to always put You first.
