On November 9, the Orthodox Church commemorates Saint Nectarios of Aegina, known for his miraculous healing, especially for cancer patients. Born in 1846 in Silivria, he became a monk and later a bishop. After facing conflicts, he returned to Greece and founded a convent on Aegina Island, where he spent his final years. He died from cancer in 1920 and was canonized in 1961. His relics are venerated in various locations in Romania, including Alba Iulia, where believers seek his intercession for health and comfort in suffering. Saint Nectarios is celebrated for the miracles attributed to him, particularly in aiding those with cancer.
