They are great teachers of the Church through their calling both to be and to act, to express faith and courage, humility and reverence for the Saviour who was crucified and rose from the dead. Through their love for Christ, the Myrrh-bearing Women become teachers of the Church\u2014apostles to the Apostles.<\/p>\n<p>Together with the Mother of God and the other holy women listed in the Church calendar, the Myrrh-bearing Women are models for Christian women who fulfil their vocation as bearers of the Light of Christ. They represent those women who, early in the morning at dawn, go before the icon of the Saviour and ask Him to roll away the many \u201cheavy stones of life\u201d from their hearts and souls. They represent women who seek Christ\u2019s help in order to become bearers of the values of faith, faithful wives and mothers in the family, and devout women in the Church.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the precious spices that faithful women bring to Christ signify the richness of spirituality\u2014that is, the relationship between the human person and God\u2014the gifts of the Holy Spirit as a pledge of the eternal blessings of the Kingdom of the Most Holy Trinity.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the Myrrh-bearing Women also represent those women who, through tears of repentance and much prayer, through ascetic struggle and early participation in church services, have become monastics who give birth to the virtues of the Christian faith.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the Myrrh-bearing Women are the icon of all faithful women in the Church\u2014women who, through their faith, courage and self-sacrifice, have become martyrs, venerable nuns in monasteries, and diligent Christian mothers in families, proclaiming that the crucified and risen Christ often meets us in unexpected ways and becomes the life of our life, granting us the pledge of eternal life.<\/p>\n<p>On this day, the Romanian Orthodox Church also celebrates the Sunday of Christian Women and the Synaxis of the Holy Romanian Women, who through their virtuous lives and courage have followed the example of the Myrrh-bearing Women, confessing the Risen Christ through prayer, word and deed.<\/p>\n<p>We recall that on Friday, February 6, 2026, the <a href=\"https:\/\/basilica.ro\/en\/romanian-orthodox-church-proclaims-16-holy-women-bucharest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general proclamation of the canonisation<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/basilica.ro\/en\/holy-synod-approves-canonization-of-16-saintly-women\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">16 Holy Romanian Women<\/a> took place, in the context of the Solemn Year of the pastoral care of the Christian family and the Commemorative Year of holy women in the calendar (myrrh-bearers, martyrs, monastics, wives and mothers).<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on the model of spiritual life offered by the holy Romanian women\u2014who shone through deep humility, steadfast faith, sacrificial love, patience in trials and fearless confession of Christ in times of persecution\u2014we remember martyrs, confessors, monastics, wives, mothers, noblewomen and princesses, as well as simple women from among the people, known or unknown, including those whose relics are found in Romania.<\/p>\n<p>On the occasion of the Sunday of the Myrrh-bearing Women and the celebrations dedicated to Christian women and the Synaxis of the Holy Romanian Women, we extend congratulations, gratitude and blessings to all women who cultivate the gifts and talents specific to the Christian vocation\u2014within the family, in monastic life, and in the educational, cultural and philanthropic service of the ecclesial community and society.<\/p>\n<p>We wish them all health and salvation, peace and holy joy, for many blessed years!<\/p>\n<p>\u2020 DANIEL<br \/>\nPatriarch
