GOD BLESS ALL!
1) there is a monk who died half a year ago and the following has happened:
A) many miracles of course
b) body DID NOT decay
c) light and doves come out of it
2) one lady had cancer, she prayed to Pope Kyrillos. He came to her and healed her and left his picture on the glass window on the door
3) this one happens 2x, one time with Pope Kyrillos and i believe St.Mena and the other time with St.Goerge. some people (muslim) were robbing a church, the saints would meet them outside and ask them y they r doing this, they said cause they r followers of Mohammoud. the saints then would open the earth and would point out Mohammoud in hell.

wen he was a priest, he wood still invite homless ppl into his home, he would call them the brothers of Christ..
one time his daughter told him that the lamp is missing, and that the last person in that room was the poor man he invited over.
he replied with such simplicity saying "dont u understand his heart was in the dark, he need something to light it up" (makes more sense in arabic)
he also wen he was visiting the the sick wood take off his shoes b4 he enters, and wen asked by a senior deacon why he did so he'd say, that jesus told us that visiting the sick is like visiting Jesus, therefore he had to take his shoes off.
now back to the topic of sharing stories

A little girl and her mom were at home alone. The mother went outside to get her mail while the two yr old daughter was left behind inside the house. A sudden breeze blew through and knocked the door closed. The little child was stuck inside and her mother was still outside. When the mom returned she realized that just on the other side of that piece of wood (called a door, lolx) was her only two yr old child. The mother began to scream and yell for help. She had thought of asking her daughter to get the keys that were layed upon the washing machine, but the little girl was too short to ever come close to getting those keys. A few moments later the woman found the key sliding from under the door and she rapidly hurried to open the door. After making sure her daughter was safe, she persumed to ask her how she reached those keys....the little girl pointed at Pope Kyrillos's picture and said "Momma, this man handed them to me!"
I love this story, i love this Saint, and I hope that he's always there to help us get the right "keys"we need to open the closed doors in our lives!! May his holy blessings be with us ;)
GOD BLESS ALL! :-*
i remember a story from the film made about the life of abouna Bishoi Kamel. Once he was going somewhere so he was getting out of the apartment, down the stairs of the building he was living in. At the same time some muslim extremists who heard of his great service, and wanted to kill him, ran up the stairs to go harm him, but God made him invisible for them and couldn't see him, so that story shows how much trouble God saves us from, even if we dont know it :)
I've recently been hearing about a saint named Aboona Yassa. I read in a book that he's like the "helper"to all children. There was a child who was born with several mental dissfunctions and the parents were devestated. The boys grandmother had heard about Aboona Yassa and she was very interested in his story and so she began to research him and visited his church in Egypt. When the grandmother continously kept telling the parents of the child about him and his passion for kids and so they decided to call on his name for his intercessions. A couple of weeks passed and the childs condition became better each day. The little boys grandmother got the sand or i think "ramla" in arabic (excuse my arabic :-[) and put it under his bed at night. The next day the little boy woke up as though he'd never had mental difficulties and now he's as normal as any other little 3yr old child. May the Blessings of this beloved saint be with us all
GOD BLESS ALL! :-*
Ever wonder about the abbreviation A.S.A.P.? Generally we think of it in terms of even more hurry and stress in our lives. Maybe if we think of this abbreviation in a different manner, we will begin to find a new way to deal with those rough days along the way.
"There's work to do, deadlines to meet;
You've got no time to spare,
But as you hurry and scurry-
A.S.A.P.-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER
In the midst of family chaos,
"Quality time" is rare.
Do your best; let God do the rest-
A.S.A.P.-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER
It may seem like your worries
Are more than you can bear.
Slow down and take a breather-
A.S.A.P.-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER
God knows how stressful life is;
He wants to ease our cares,
And He'll respond to all your needs
A.S.A.P.-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER
Thought I share this with you guys I think it is cool...

An article in National Geographic several years ago provided a penetrating picture of God's wings.
After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park, forest rangers began their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's damage. One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground at the base of a tree. Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight, he knocked over the bird with a stick. When he gently struck it, three tiny chicks scurried from under their dead mother's wings.
The loving mother, keenly aware of impending disaster, had carried her offspring to the base of the tree and had gathered them under her wings, instinctively knowing that the toxic smoke would rise. She could have flown to safety but had refused to abandon her babies. When the blaze had arrived and the heat had scorched her small body, the mother had remained steadfast. Because she had been willing to die, those under the cover of her wings would live.
"He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge." (Psalm 91:4).
Being loved this much should make a difference in your life. Remember the One who loves you, and then be different because of it.
Enjoy... Conqueror
