“Join in with Christ in comforting others, be a big heart which suffers with those those who suffer, visits the sick, comforts the broken hearted, helps to solve people’s problems, or at least prays for others and comforts them in their tribulations and helps them to follow God. As St. Paul said, “Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep” (Romans 12:15).” – H.H.

It is You Lord who built Jerusalem.. Come and do not wait for me.. lest You should wait and I come not” – H.H. Pope Shenouda III
