With the blessing of Metropolitan Nicolae, the Romanian Orthodox Youth of the Americas (ROYA) will be travelling to Romania for the 4th edition of the ROYA Heritage Trip. This trip is for youth and young adults who wish to get in touch with their roots and (re)discover their Romanian heritage. By visiting many cultural and historic sites throughout the country we will be in contact with the authentic Romanian way of life: a life in Christ. Whether we’re at a conference with the monks at Putna, witnessing Fr. Tanase’s incredible mission first hand, or interacting with our Romanian Orthodox peers at the International Camp at Oasa, we will have the opportunity to see and learn what it means to be a true disciple of Christ.
