    Well, this isn't my own information, I got it out of the book by his grace ST. Athanasius. Check it out.

    hi


    When he felt that his departure was near, he ordered his disciples to hide his body, to give his staff to St. Macarius, his sheepskin overcoat to St. Athanasius, and his slippers to St. Serapion his disciple. (http://www.stantonymonastery.org/saintantony/index.asp)

    i guess those relics aren't parts of his body but of his belongings.

    God Bless

    easy question, :)
    which saint was muslim and then coverted to christianity, as a young boy he use to see christians coming out of church so happy after taking communion and wished he could do the same as them

    ------------------------------------------
    there were 3 friends that wanted money from this bishop, so they made up a lie and 2 of them went saying 1 of them died and they needed money to bury him, when they returned home their 3rd friend actually died, so they went back to the bishop and told him the truth, whats the name of the saint/bishop?
  • sleepymusiciansleepymusician
    The answer to the second is Anba Abraam, bishop of the poor. That was one of my favorites. lol

    sleepy
  • PrincessMaryPrincessMary
    yes u r right, great job :)
  • PrincessMaryPrincessMary
    1 of them is Anba Antonious Marcos i think, he speaks like a ton of african dialects, i thought he's the only bishop down there?
  • Marianne87Marianne87
    The other one is Anba Bouals
  • kiropidiakonoskiropidiakonos
    what about anba sarapamon in sudan?
  • kiropidiakonoskiropidiakonos
    marmar91, 1st of all how did i mess up the question, they answered before is said anything...and 2nd anba sarabamoun is not a metrpolitan, hes a bishop...thanx
  • kiropidiakonoskiropidiakonos
    lol no its ok..but i have a coptic directory here in my hands that says both of the anba sarabamouns are bishops so thats confusing too...lol but dont feel bad its all good...maybe u should post up the link where u found the info bout anba sarabamoun bishop of anba bishoy monestary, and ya ive seen him...he came with the pope last year...thanx...pray for me
  • kiropidiakonoskiropidiakonos
    ya...sry marmar u were right, he mustve been ranked that not so long ago cause the directory i have is for 2005...but sorry for the misunderstanding...pray for me
  • PrincessMaryPrincessMary
    Marmar, it is said by some that he could be from Europe because Europe in mythology was a woman riding a bull, as in revelations ch. 17

    17:3 "...and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."
  • sleepymusiciansleepymusician
    I have another one, and I think it's pretty easy.

    Which saint, by his wisdom caused much jealousy among his rivals that they made false testimony about him and caused his death?
