Saint Gabriel (Urgebadze) of Georgia (1929 – 1995) is one of the most beloved modern saints of the Eastern Orthodox Church. A humble monk and “Fool for Christ,” he fearlessly defended the faith during the Soviet era, openly denouncing atheism and burning an image of Lenin in public as a confession of Christ’s truth. Imprisoned and beaten, he forgave his persecutors and lived the rest of his life in meekness and love, serving the poor and comforting all who came to him. Countless miracles and healings have been recorded at his tomb in Samtavro Monastery, where pilgrims continue to seek his intercession.
Canonized by the Georgian Orthodox Church in 2012 and recognized throughout the Orthodox world, Saint Gabriel is honored as a beacon of divine love and forgiveness in modern times.
