Pope Cyril VI of Alexandria, the 116th Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church, is remembered for his deep spirituality and renewal of faith within the Church. Known as “The Man of Prayer,” he celebrated over twelve thousand liturgies during his lifetime, emphasized monasticism, and lived a life of ascetic devotion. His papacy strengthened ecclesiastical institutions, advanced theological education, and inspired countless believers through his holiness and miracles. Closely connected to St. Mina the Wonderworker, he remains beloved not only by the Coptic faithful but also by Christians of other traditions.
“Be very, very reassured and do not think about the matter too much, but leave the matter to the One who has the matter in hand.”Pope Cyril VI
