On this day, was the assumption of the body of our pure Lady St. Mary, the Mother of God. While she was keeping vigil, praying in the Holy Sepulchre, and waiting for the happy minute of her liberation from the bonds of the flesh, the Holy Spirit informed her of her forthcoming departure from this vain world. When the time drew near, the disciples and the virgins of the Mt. of Olives (Zeiton) came and the Lady was lying on her bed. Our Lord, surrounded by thousands and thousands of angels, came to Her. He consoled her, and announced her with the everlasting joy which was prepared for Her. She was happy, and she stretched out her hands, blessed the Disciples, and the Virgins. Then, she delivered up her pure soul in the hand of her Son and God, Jesus Christ, Who ascended her to the higher habitations. As of the pure body, they shrouded it and carried it to Gethsemane. On their way, some of the Jews blocked the way in the face of the disciples to prevent the burial. One of them seized the coffin. His hands were separated from his body, and remained hanging until he believed and repented for his mischievous deed. With the prayers of the holy disciples, his hands were reattached to his body as they had been before. St. Thomas was absent at the time of St. Mary’s departure, but he came after the burial. On his way back to Jerusalem, St. Thomas saw angels carrying St. Mary’s pure body and ascending with it to heaven, and one of the angels said to him, “Hurry and kiss the pure body of St. Mary.” When he arrived to the disciples, they informed him about St. Mary’s departure. He told them, “I will not believe, unless I see her body, as you all know how I did doubt the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ before.” They took him to the tomb, to uncover the body but they did not find it, and they were perplexed and amazed. St. Thomas told them how he saw the pure body ascending to heaven, carried by angels. The Holy Spirit then told them, “The Lord did not Will to leave Her Holy body on earth.” The Lord had promised his pure apostles that they would see her in flesh another time. They were waiting for the fulfillment of this truthful promise, until the sixteenth day of the month of Misra, when the promise of seeing her was fulfilled. They saw her sitting on the right hand of her Son and her Lord, surrounded by the angelic Host, as David prophesied and said, “At your right hand stands the queen.” (Psalm 45:9) St. Mary’s life on earth was sixty years. She spent twelve years of them in the temple, thirty years in the house of the righteous St. Joseph, and fourteen years in the care of St. John the Evangelist, as the Lord commanded her saying, “Woman behold your Son,” and to St. John, “Behold your Mother.” May Her intercession be with us. Amen. The Martyrdom of St. Eudaemon, of Armant (El-Armanti). 24th August - 18th Mesra
On this day also, St. Eudaemon (Wadamon), of the city of Armant (El-Armanti), was martyred. One day, he had visitors in his house, who were heathen, and they were saying to each other, «We have heard that a lady arrived to the city of

The Commemoration of the Departure of St. Mary Known as Marina, the Ascetic. 21st Augus - 15th Mesra On this day, the church celebrates the commemoration of the departure of the nun St. Marina, who was the daughter of a very rich Christian man. Her name was Mariam, and her mother died when she was a little girl. Her father raised her, and brought her up well. When he wanted to give her in marriage, and to go himself and become a monk in one of the monasteries, she told him, “O my Father, why would you save your own soul, and destroy mine?” He answered saying, “What shall I do with you? You are a woman.” She told him, “I will take off my woman’s dress and will put on the garb of a man.” She rose up straightway, shaved off the

Ashmonain carrying a young Child who resembled the children of Kings.» Others asked, «Did this Child(1) come to the land of Egypt?» and everyone was talking about this Child.Afterthe guests had left, Eudaemon rose up, rode his donkey and went to the city of Ashmonain. When he arrived, he saw the Child Jesus with his mother Mariam (Mary), and he kneeled before Him. As the Child saw what Eudaemon had done, the Child smiled and said, «Peace be with you Eudaemon, you have labored and come here in person to assert what you have heard from your guests about Me. Thence I will stay in your home, which will be a house for Me forever.» St. Eudaemon marvelled and said, «O My Lord I wish that You will come and live in my house and I will be Your servant forever.» The Child replied saying, «Your home will be a house for Me and My mother forever. When you return home and the heathen hear that you came to Me, they will be sorry and hurt, and they will shed your blood in your house. Don›t be afraid because I will receive you in My heavenly kingdom forever, the place of perpetual joy, which has no end. You will be the first martyr in Upper Egypt.» Then Eudaemon kneeled down before the Lord Christ, the Child, Who blessed him, then he returned to his home. Upon Eudaemon›s return to Armant, the heathen heard about his arrival. The news that Eudaemon had visited the Child Jesus, spread in the city. They came to him in haste asking, «Is all that they say about you true?» Eudaemon replied saying, «Yes, I went to the Lord Christ, Who blessed me and said, ‹I am coming to dwell in your house with My mother, forever.›» The heathens shouted out as one person, drew their swords, and killed him. Thus, Eudaemon received the crown of martyrdom on this day. When paganism was abolished, and Christianity spread in the land, the Christians converted the house of St. Eudaemon into a church, and named it after St. Mary and her Son, to Whom is the everlasting Glory. This church is the one called El-Gishouna, which means «the church of the living,» in the outskirts of Armant, which still exists now. May God have mercy on us through the intercession of our Lady the Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, and the intercession of the martyr Eudaemon, the pure faithful, and Glory be to our God forever. Amen.

hair on her head and put on the garb of a man. When her father saw her strong determination and persistent desire, he gave all his possessions to the poor, keeping only a very little for himself, and he called her Marina instead of Mariam (Mary). Then he went to one of the monasteries, and lived in one of the cells with his daughter, for ten years, fighting the spiritual fight. Then her father, who was an old man, died. St. Marina was left by herself, and she doubled her fasting, prayers and increased her asceticism. No one knew that she was a woman, and they attributed her soft voice to her intense asceticism and vigilant Onceprayers.the abbot of the monastery sent her, together with three monks, to the city on certain business of the monastery, and they lodged in an inn. That same night, one of the king’s soldiers lodged in that inn, and he saw the daughter of the owner of the inn, and he defiled her virginity. He instructed her to tell her father, “that the young monk, Father Marina, did that to me.”
When she had conceived, and her father knew that, he asked her and she answered saying, “that it was the young monk, abba Marina, who did that to me.” Her father then became angry, went to the monastery and began to curse and insult the monks. The Abbot met with him, comforted and calmed him down and then sent him away. The Abbot then called this saint and rebuked her much. When she knew what had happened, she wept and bowed down and said, “I am young, I have sinned, forgive me O my Father.” The Abbot was furious with her, and cast her out of the monastery. She dwelt outside of the monastery for a long time. When the daughter of the inn keeper had the baby, her father took him to St. Marina, set him down before her and left. She took the child, moved among the surrounding shepherds and nursed him with milk. She increased her fasting and prayers for the three years, that she was expelled from the monastery. The monks felt pity upon her and asked the Abbot to readmit her. The Abbot consented to their request and readmitted her to the monastery after he had laid heavy penalties and severe rules upon the Saint. She performed very hard labors, such as cooking, cleaning, and watering, as well as her regular monastic duties. When the child grew, he became a monk. After St. Marina had completed forty years, she fell ill for three days then departed in peace. The Abbot ordered to take off her old ragged clothes and dress her with new ones prior to carrying her to the place of praying. When they removed her clothing, and found that she was a woman, they all shouted out saying, “God have mercy.” They informed the Abbot who came, marvelled, and wept because of what he had done to her. The Abbot then called the inn keeper and told him that the monk Marina was a woman not a man. The inn keeper went to where her body was and wept much. After they prayed over her body, they came forward to be blessed from her body. One of the monks had sight only in one eye, he put his face close to her body and immediately he gained sight in his blind eye. After she was buried, God allowed a devil to torment the inn keeper’s daughter and the soldier, her friend, and brought them to where the Saint was buried and both confessed their iniquity in front of everyone. God manifested innumerable miracles through her blessed body. May her prayers be with us and Glory be to our God forever. Amen.
St. Habib Girgis the Archdeacon 21st August - 15th Mesra Archdeacon Habib Girgis (1876-1951) was born at a time of great darkness, ignorance, and apathy in the life of the Coptic Orthodox Church. It was a period of turmoil and great struggle both inwardly and external ly. Within the Church, conflict existed between the hierarchy and the laity of the Church and, externally, Protestant and Catholic missionaries from Britain and the United States challenged the intellectual and demographic hold of the Coptic Orthodox Church. There were also the pressures brought upon the Church from the rulers of the land.
Habib Girgis was among the first to join the Theolog ical College since its re-establishment in 1893 when Yusuf Bek Manqarius was the dean. Being at the top of his class, he was chosen to teach at the Theological College while in his final year as a student, because there were few teachers to teach theology. He graduated in 1898, and was appointed to teach full time on 17 March 1898 that same year; later, he became the dean of the College in 1918. He was an archdeacon but not ordained as a priest. Pope Cyril V trusted him and appointed him as his personal deacon and disciple. He also worked closely with Pope Yuannis XIX (1928- 42), Pope Macarius III (1942-45), and Pope Yusab II (1946-56). As chief editor, he published The Vine (al-Karma)--a religious, moral, and historical journal. The first issue was published on 11 September 1904, and he went on to pub lish more than thirty religious, theological, educational, and historical books along with many sermons and educational studies. In 1900, after Cyril V issued a papal decree in 1899 concerning religious education, he established Sunday Schools as a formal type of religious education for the first time in Egypt. He was chosen to be a member of the General Sunday School Committee, established in 1918, and in 1927 he was chosen as the general secretary of the same committee. Elected several times with the highest number of votes to the Lay Council (Majlis Milli), he was nominated to the papacy after the repose of Cyril V in 1928. During that time he was also nominated as bishop. However, the Church was not yet ready for such a reformer. He was among the most important participants in the first conference for Sunday School teachers in 1941 during the papacy of Pope Yusab II. He also participated in the sec ond such conference in 1949. Both Copts and Muslims were deeply affected by his death on Wednesday evening 21 August 1951. The Church had lost one of its most revered sons— an eloquent teacher, a visionary, an educational pioneer, a reformer, and a loyal servant of the Coptic Orthodox Church.

Contemplation on the Gospel of the Third Sunday of Mesra Mark 3: 22 – 35 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that king dom cannot stand Mark 3: 25 How hard for a person to be despiteful or en vious. Such person loses the clear vision and right path in life for whatever he sees of meet/ He can see the which as black and the black as white. How strange and harmful to even deceive yourself in your spiritual life relying on your own assessment and thinking to deal with your weakness and sins. You may treat sin by disobedience or more sins. That was the case with the Pharisees and Scribes when dealing with the Lord. They saw the great miracles and works of the Lord. Instead of recognising the great power of God and believe, their evil eyes saw instead the action of Satan and reasoned for themselves that Lord Jesus has Beelzebub the prince of devils who does their great miracles. How could a Satan cast out Satan. Many people today apply the same evil logic. When they want to cast out a Satan they employ another Satan. Even if they can see a Satan being cast out they rely that to the Satan. Many try to find easy and quick solutions to their problems. They end up with much more complicated unsolved problems. Be careful deceitful and unwise quick solutions cannot solve any issue. Satan cannot cast out Satan. + How can Satan cast out Satan? So often people go to Satan to get rid of another Satan. They treat evil by evil. That was the case with King Saul. The Lord has chosen him to be a king for Israel. One day the Lord ordered him to go and attack Amalek (1Samuel 15) and utterly destroy them as punishment for their evils. The Lord helped him to attack and conquer those evil people. Saul forgot God’s instruction to utterly destroy them. He felt proud of his victory and decided to spare the king of Amalek and the best of sheep, oxen and lambs. The Lord was angry and sent Samuel the prophet to tell him how much the Lord was angry. It was expected that Saul repent and cry for his sins. Then the Lord may forgive him. The Lord does not help him or answer his prayers anymore. He decided to go the wrong way. A distressing spirit from God came upon him. He went to plot to kill David whom the Lord had chosen to replace him. He even went to the to a medium woman to find

He went to Satan to find help. This Satan destroyed him and all his Sofamily.also Jeroboam (1Kings 12) who became a king for ten tribes of Israel while Rehoboam son of Solomon had only two tribes left for his kingdom. Jeroboam was very afraid that the if the people go to Jerusalem to the temple to offer sacrifices to God they may return back to their king and the kingdom of Solomon. He decided to employ Satan to solve his problem. He asked advice and made two calves of gold setting up one in Bethel and the other in Dan and asked peo ple not to go to Jerusalem but go these idols to offer sacrifices. This thing became a sin for the people who went to worship there. His kingdom did not last long. His whole family and decedents perished in one gener ation. (1Kings 12 – 15). There is also Ananias and Sapphira his wife (Acts 5) who tried to cover up their deceit by lying. They both perished as a result of lying to the Holy Spirit. How do you solve your problems? You may lie and then you lie again to cover the first lie and so on. Lying became your way to solve problems. It never works. It makes things more complicated and missy. Learn to admit your mistakes and be truthful with yourself. Do not solve a problem by another. Sometimes it is difficult when people expose your mistakes. How you react. Getting angry and abusive? How to sort differences or disagreements in marriage or normal life? Some people tend to deal with issues in a violent abusive way. Even it can escalate to seek police interference or facing each other in courts, rather than sitting together with proper spirit of understanding and sort out these issues. How much can Satan help to sort out such problems? Some people under life stresses and inability to face challenges they resort to drugs, smoking or alcohol or even to bad friends’ company to drift away from facing their issues. What do you do when you face a financial crisis in your life. Do you start to think calmly asking for a proper advice and pleading for God’s support or you resort to other ways like gambling, cheating or even

stealing? Remember that there are many people today behind bars or roaming the streets helplessly and lost as a result of seeking the wrong evil ways to sort their difficulties. They seek Satan help. Be aware Satan can never solve your problems or any problems at all. Satan rejoice more when you are in trouble. Satan may make thing more complicated. How can I conquer this Satan? + first bind the strong Find this strong one hiding behind your hardships. Find him and bind him then you can release yourself from his snares. Who is this strong? It could be your own lusts and desires which fight you from inside. It could be your selfpride which stops you confessing your sins. Learn first to bind this strong. Bind the strong by repentance. Look deep into yourself and find how much misery the sin has caused to you. Nothing can break the might of such a strong one as repentance and confession of sins. Nothing can expel darkness except light. Expose your sins to be released from its bitterness and misery. Levi the Tax-collector became Matthew the Apostle through repentance. Saul of Tarsus who persecuted the church became Paul the Apostle when he discov ered the real way and cried “Lord what do you want me to do?” (Acts 9:5). Bind this strong one by fasting. Control this body by fasting and learn to fast from things that lead you astray. Gradually this strong one will weaken and eventually fall under your feet. Fasting is not only about food but also about stopping bad habits and addicted practices. You could be addicted to bad movies, drugs, social media traps and also to company of bad friends who fill your life with evil ideas and practices. Bid the strong one by prayer. Fervent prayers bund you strongly with the Lord. It can smash all these chains of that strong one and liberate you for the Bindbonds.this strong one by Communion. When you are united with God none of
There are five basics that encourage good dialogue: )1) Listening: In dialogue you must listen while the other is talking, listening means good listening, and trying to understand the other, put yourself in the other›s place. Listening is to pay full attention to the other party. There is also optional listening, which we often see when talking to our teenage boys, where the boy or girl hears only what they want. Unfortunately, there are people who do not feel speech, do not react to it, or are not affected by it. They does not focus on the dialogue, while there are those who listen

those mighty evil ones can approach you. Start with real repentance falling down on your knees with tears. Did you know the real reasons for your troubles. You submitted to this strong one. Get up now. If you continue in your despair you can lead to full loss of hope and that will lead to blasphemies against the Holy Spirit which will deprive you from forgiveness. Whatever your bad sins level. There is also a change to come back and be saved. Do not lose the chance. When you advance God’s Will in your life you will start to feel so close to Him. The Lord said: “For whoever does the will of God is My brother and my sister and mother.” How could you reach Successful dialogue at home?
Dialogue is not just words. Verbal dialogue is with words; however dialogue can be with all parts of human body. Verbal dialogue constitutes 40% of the dialogue, but it is accomplished by other body parts such as the eye, facial expressions, and hand movements. Such basics are being taught in the sciences of journalism, rhetoric and sociology. When Jesus met the Samaritan woman, he encouraged her disregarding her sinful life. And as a result of the Lord Christ’s dialogue with the Samaritan woman, he gained the whole city. Dialogue is not a battle that we enter until we quarrel, or for one party to prove that he is right and the other is wrong. Dialogue is an art that has regulations and rules, a bit of science, a bit of philosophy, and a bit of wisdom. Dialogue expresses thinking, and assessment of the situation. After the Second World War, ended in 1945 in which millions died, the world began to realize that dialogue and negotiation are better than fighting. Hence, a new formulation of human relations was set up, for example, they started negotiations instead of war, and in education instead of lecture (one person speaks and the rest listen( they called it seminar )mutual conversations(, in the fields of economy, dialogue is established through advertisements, and the world has become full of talk shows. Dialogue is a decision and a continuation, not a quarrel, a decision to accept the other party, on an ongoing basis, that does not involve any kind of quarrel. Dialogue requires an awake soul and a conscious mind that understands and discusses according to the size of the topic.
)2) Chattering: That a person moves, from one topic to another. There is confusion, absence of logic, absence of clarity and absence of seriousness. In order for the dialogue to succeed, the dialogue must be specific: we will only talk about so and so.
)5) Time: What we are suffering these days is the social media devices that kill time. Do not let sitting in front of the TV, the Internet, or the mobile steal your time. The most valuable thing you give to one another is time. A time when you two do not get busy with anything. “See how carefully you walk, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil” (3). Notice how precision is associated with wisdom. The most beautiful use of time is being together, as the happiness is of being together.
(4) Showing love and respect for the others: The third chapter of the epistle of our teacher James the Apostle talks about controlling the tongue. Most of the problems - if not all - are caused by the lack of speech (tongue) control. The tongue, throat, and speech are what distinguish the human being from other creatures. “With it we bless God the Father, and with it we curse men who have been made in the likeness of God” )2(. What a very difficult equation! Respecting the feelings of the other is the highest noble human feeling. Choosing the appropriate words not to hurt the other, and listening well, are one of the means of respecting the feelings of the other. Spouses must show their love for each other, respect each other, and be the cause of each other›s success. Showing love with all the sweet feelings adds pleasure to life. A nice word mentioned in a special situation between each other, gives a feeling that this party supporting the other, and wants to make him happy.
* So what makes dialogue fruitless?
(1). The mistake is probable from either of the spouses. Using words like “Amen”, “please”, “thank you”, “may God bless you for us”, “you are our joy”... Kind words flow to the soul, and have an effect like the effect of water for new planting, meaning that they refresh feelings and help in achieving successful dialogue.
with all ears, an emotional person who listens and is interested, no matter how trivial the topic is. I told you once, that continuous conversations between spouses, forms a special language and a dictionary of words for them, and whenever this dictionary contains words of love, the speech is sweet, and one longs to talk to the other, no matter how simple or frequent the subject is. But remember that men in general have few words, spending a long time not talking. On the other hand, speech gives the woman pleasure as if she achieves herself through speech, and we note that the little girl speaks before the boy, as for the girl, speech brings her pleasure, and she likes to speak extensively. The wife should respect the pithiness of her husbands’ words.
)1) Silence: One side speaks and the other is silent, either ignoring the other, or being withdrawn, or pretending to be angry, or showing his indifference to words... All these negativities waste the dialogue. “In your anger do not sin, Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry”(4).
)2) Frankness: We ran a test between a group of young people and their parents, and we asked one of the mothers: What is the most successful marriage?. She said: To be honest. Frankness builds trust, and whenever there is frankness in the home, the home is strong. Therefore, the dialogue at home must be an open one, in which there is openness, and discussion without imposing an opinion, but the most important thing is frankness without the slightest insult. Honesty is wisdom, and disclosure is without any defamation.
)3) Using sweet words: Using kind words in the dialogue. The commandment of the Bible says: “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God also forgave you in Christ”
)3) Tears: Tears interrupt the dialogue, and take it out of rationality. Sometimes a woman uses tears as a means of pressure on her husband. Tears completely lose the meaning of dialogue. )4) Anger: Fire does not extinguish fire, but water extinguishes fire. Anger is like fire, if one spouse becomes angry, the other must be like water. Anger appears in a loud voice, harsh criticism, insult...Anger interrupts the dialogue. )5) Lack of time Television may steal time. Exhausting work may steal time between spouses. Finally, Husbands and wives pay attention to each other, because this is the vocabulary of successful dialogue. Let verbal communication be one of basics of your life. I advise you to read the third chapter of the epistle of our teacher James to know the value of speech.(1)Ephesians 4:32. (2)James 3:9. (3) Ephesians 5: 15-16. (4) Ephesians 4: 26.
