When he was ordained a bishop, he paid great attention to the pastoral work; he set an order to the public liturgy in his diocese Milano, leaving us a precious legacy of sermons despite his heavy obsession and suffering.<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">This sermon titled \u201cThe Birth of the Savior\u201d is an explanation of the chapter of Christ\u2019s birth as in the Gospel of Saint Luke the Evangelist. In his sermon, the saint tackles the reason for which Christ came to our world, the secret meaning of the gifts presented by the Magi, he also wonders at the faith of the shepherds, concluding his explanation by speaking about St. Virgin Mary\u2019s purity and meekness, commending us to follow her suit in purity.<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">We introduce this sermon translated by Mr. Remon Youssef Rizq, Researcher at the Coptic Orthodox Cultural Center from the English text, pleading for God to grant us understanding of the words of our father Saint Ambrosius, so our life would be fruitful, and we would rejoice spiritually at the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, through the intercession of our mother St. Virgin Mary and through the prayers of His Holiness Pope Tawadros II.<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">1<sup>st<\/sup> of Kiahk 1729 AM<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">10<sup>th<\/sup> of December 2012 AD<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">The Nativity Fasting<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">Bishop Ermia<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">The General Bishop and Head of the Coptic Orthodox Cultural Center<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"RTL\"><a href=\"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/211.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" alt='211-218x300-1411631' class=\"size-medium wp-image-366 aligncenter\" src='https:\/\/copticocc.org\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/211-218x300-1411631.jpg' alt=\"21\" width=\"218\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993366; font-family: times new roman,times; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>\u0645\u064a\u0644\u0627\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0645\u062e\u0644\u0635\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993366; font-family: times new roman,times; font-size: 18px;\"><strong> \u0627\u0644\u0642\u062f\u064a\u0633 \u0623\u0645\u0628\u0631\u0648\u0633\u064a\u0648\u0633 \u0623\u0633\u0642\u0641 \u0645\u064a\u0644\u0627\u0646<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times; font-size: 18px;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times; font-size: 18px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u062f\u064a\u0633\u0645\u0628\u0631 2012\u0645<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9956,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3515],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-365","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-books"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=365"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":71424,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365\/revisions\/71424"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9956"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copticocc.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
