On International Women\u2019s Day, the Archbishop of Alba Iulia sent a congratulatory message to every Christian woman: \u201cAt the gate of her heart stands conscience as a guard, and only duty passes beyond the threshold of her heart,\u201d Archbishop Irineu noted in his message.<\/strong><\/p>\n

By a \u201ctrustworthy saying\u201d (2 Tim. 2:10), the woman, through her specific qualities, can incentivize those around her to be more conscientious, orderly, and productive, both personally as well as professionally,\u201d His Eminence Archbishop Irineu said.<\/p>\n

The Archbishop highlighted that in the Christian woman, \u201cfeminine delicacy is symphonically intertwined with the virtue of courage, and the tendency towards the contemplation of beauty with the creative activity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOn this day dedicated to women, we express our sincere affection for these wonderful beings,\u201d the Archbishop added.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the same time, we ask God to give them a peaceful life, imbued with the soft scent of spring flowers and seconded by the harmonious chirping of the birds in the budding grove. Happy Women\u2019s Day!\u201d<\/p>\n

March 8 was initially celebrated as Women\u2019s Day in Western socialist circles, then became a national day in Soviet Russia.<\/p>\n

Gradually, the holiday moved away from its ideological origins and came to be marked in over 100 countries.<\/p>\n
