===
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the holy is Spirit, one God amen. Today our church celebrated the day of Saint Mina, the beloved martyr of our Coptic church is originally Egyptian. He was born in a rich family and you may know that his mother. Could not bring any children. And she had kind of a promise from St. Mary, the icon of St. Mary when she heard like the voice of St. Mary saying, Amen, so she called her son Mina, related to Amen. Father, a mother of St. Mina brought him in the church and he was in love with God. And he lost his parents early in, like his 14th years old. And since that time, he dedicated his life fully to God, and coming to be an officer, he declared his faith in Christ. He suffered a lot, but you know, he could see the face of our Lord Jesus Christ. And the Lord promised him that he will come to his paradise soon. And then he became a martyr. And you all know that our beloved pope Cyril he was like a friend of Saint. Mina and because these saints are in just like one family related to Christ, so, they worked together to help many people and to solve many problems. And Pope Cyril taught us how to have a friendship with the Saints like St. Mina. So in his day, we are asking him for his intercession, and we are looking up to him to follow his steps and to love Christ as he loved him. May God bless you all. Amen.
