“For those who love the heavenly realms, the revelation of a new saint is a spiritual joy and consolation. Each one is a precious link in the golden chain of sanctity, illumining for us the way of sanctity in our present darkness. Blessed Euphemia of Ravanitsa, Serbia, (†1958) is just such a link for us. Her radiant soul, kindled by the Mother of God in her youth, burned for God, Who fashioned her into an apostle, shepherd and consoler of souls. Like and ever-burning vigil lamp before the Lord, she never rested from her labors despite war, death, sickness and despair raging all around her. First as a lay ascetic, and later as a monastic, she used the natural gifts given her by God in collaboration with Divine grace to enter a transfigured state and become a source of Christ’s love for all who came to her.”
