Coptic Synaxarium (Coptic Orthodox Calendar)

21 Paonah
(The Twenty-First Day of the Blessed Month of Baounah)

 

The Commemoration of the First Church for The Virgin Mary in the city of Philippi

On this day, the church celebrates the commemoration of the first church to be built in the name of the Virgin Lady, the All pure St. Mary, the Theotokos (Mother of God), through whom the salvation of Adam and his posterity was fulfilled. When the two apostles Paul and Silas preached among the gentiles, many believed of them in the city of Philippi. They built a church there in the name of the Virgin, the Mother of God, and its consecration was on that day. It is meet for us to celebrate for her a spiritual festival, for she has borne the Savior of the world.

May her intercession be with us. Amen.
