On Saturday, the Cernica Monastery hosted the local proclamation ceremony for the canonization of Saint Priest Dumitru Stăniloae, with the officiating of the Holy Liturgy by a synod of hierarchs. The saint was canonized on July 12, 2024, and the 'Elie Wiesel' Institute criticized this decision, highlighting Stăniloae's controversial connections to extremism and the apology of legionaryism during the interwar period. This ceremony included the reception of his relics, emphasizing his importance in the history of the Romanian Orthodox Church.
