The Story of Holy Hierarch Calinic of Cernica, the Wonderworker

Baby Constantine, the future Abbot Calinic of Cernica Monastery, was born in Bucharest in the 18th Century - a time of great upheaval and troubles caused by the Turkish dominion. A man of prayer, comforter of the sick, great founder of monasteries and an innovative printer, as well as an ardent supporter of the Union of the Romanian Principalities, the Holy Hierarch Calinic managed to renew the Christian life of the Church in a short span of time.

Through a text filled with his teachings and wrought with warm illustrations, children will find an example of great courage and self-sacrifice, and learn that the True Faith overcomes all obstacles.
