A section of the Workshops of the Romanian Patriarchate will bear the name of Saint Elisabeta de la Pasăreatranslated

The Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church approved, in the working session of July 2, 2026, the request of the Biblical and Orthodox Mission Institute that the Section of the Workshops of the Romanian Patriarchate at the Pasărea monastery in Ilfov should bear the name "Saint Elisabeta from Pasărea".

The request was made at the initiative of Blessed Father Daniel, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church.

Saint Elisabeta from Pasărea worked, during the period 1990-1996, at the Carving Section of the Workshops of the Romanian Patriarchate at the Pasărea Monastery, in the same building where this obedience is still carried out today. It is the only working point of the Workshops of the Romanian Patriarchate that still operates in its original location. Priestly vestments are also made at the monastery.

The Chancellery of the Holy Synod conveyed in the report submitted to the attention of the hierarchs that the attribution of the name "Saint Pious Elizabeth of the Bird" is a gesture of gratitude towards the saint and a spiritual strengthening for the nuns who work within the section.
