Fr. Lazarus ElAnthony - Monk's Life Eps 1

- He was an atheist, and now he is Fr. Lazarus ELAnthony, a hermit coming from Australia to live in St. Anthony's Monastery in the deserts of the Red Sea, Egypt.
Fr. Lazarus is telling the details of his trip to the Coptic orthodox faith in Monk's life series.
His mother's death due to cancer pushed him to look to life from a different perspective; he read a book for a monk called Thomas Merton where he found the same circumstances. So, he decided to go to a monastery and be a monk, he went to an orthodox monastery in Russia, and while he was making a matanoya for St. Mary, he heard a voice talking to him saying;" I'll be you mother. " And she repeated it again saying:" you mother has dead, but I'll be your mother."
He asked about St. Mary and knew a lot about her, then he decided to be baptized in the Coptic Orthodox Church.
And now he is a hermit in a cave near to St. Anthony's Monastery in Egypt for over 14 years ago. - บันเทิง
I know many Ethiopian Monks. They have much love to Coptic,Syrian & Armenian saints.
Be strong my father to see your father treasure ( heaven )by his mercy from eritrean Oriental orthodox church
I love you, Father Lazarus! You’re the best! Thank you very much for saving me.
What an interesting story of conversion. He was an atheist with a Protestant background, and his mother was a suporter of the Catholic Church. And he converted after the death of his mother trought writings of Thomas Merton catholic monk, in Serbian-Ortodox monastery, and finally he became an anchorit in Coptic Ortodox Church (and Blessed Virgin, our Holy Mother Mary was with him trought all this way to the Son of God, her only Son). He is in a true sense Catholicos, in some way all of christian churces and comunities somehow influenced his way to Jesus Christ, to the Church. Greetings from Croatia, from one Catholic. It's a beautiful story. God works in mysterious ways, indeed. (I apologize for my awful knowledge of english)

I'm not very religious in the sense of monotheism, more of an omnithiest as I think every text and expanding your knowledge on spirituality is the highest form of enlightenment, I'm glad to finally see an example of a good christian in this day and age.
I hope I can see you one day father
Please Father Pray For Me sinner

from fr. radu lazar from ROMANIAN ORTHODOX CHRUCH, i like fr. lazarus. how i can ask him to remember my in his praiers?
Is there any chance to talk to him through the internet? I've been watching his videos for some years and now I see I should talk to him.
hello i want the music of this program in the begining plzzzzzzzz
I'd be interested to know what Father Lazarus' daily life is like? Perhaps he speaks a bit about this in one of the dozens of videos of him, but I haven't encountered it yet.
Why all the series of Father Lazarus have been all taken off? 😢
Sarebbe possibile l'aggiunta dei sottotitoli anche agli altri video di Padre Lazarus?
I I want to ask how I can pray for somebody who has Devil ask for father he’s going to question thank you God bless you🙏🙏🙏
Please, can anyone tell me who is the music performer in this video? Music is so sweet.
Tell me too
1.) Angry and Dead Again (From "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides"/Soundtrack Version) - Rodrigo y Gabriela and 2.) Message for the Queen - Tyler Bates ... btw, both songs have copyright claims, so the video can not be monetized, and we don't have to close advertisements...😀
How does one join the monastery? I'm from Sydney. Peace
Life of a hermit is hard but i am pretty sure it is worth it.
The road for a 100mile is the first step.
Does anyone know the Fathers previous name? I want to do an assignment on him.
The only true salvation is realization
@cuttlefisch Coptic Orthodox is still orthodox. The Copts were misunderstood at the council of Chalcedon. The Copts with other oriental churches and the eastern orthodox church believe in the same thing, just expressed differently. The Oriental Orthodox used St Cyrill of Alexandrias methiod of looking at the natures of Jesus, and The Eastern othrodox church used the council of chalcedon
This is really good stuff, please translate it to spanish or at least tell me how to do the captioning, is not too often listen about Marx, Freud, Poe or Byron, given them their right place an not being excomulgated by Rome, my regards in Jesus to fr.Lazarus, Jose Luis
I have a question: if he went to a monastery in Russia why did he become a Copt instead of a mainstream Orthodox Christian?
The Coptic church is the church of Alexandria, the church of Saint Athanasius the one who protected the faith and the foundation for monasticism and FYI, the title of Pope was held by the patriarch of the church of Alexandria ~250 years before Rome
The Soundtrack is Macedonian song "Zajdi Zajdi" watch?v=jqMWYahVEc8
it's not exactly the same, can you find an exact match
Does anybody knows what happened to Fr Lazarus now? Is he alive?
+Hellen Pollen Yes, he is still alive living at St. Anthony monastery in the Red Sea, Sinai Egypt.
+Christian Youth Channel Thank you :) He is the reason why for my to keep discovering myself and my family through Yeshua. I stay in Malaysia and I feel him close to my heart although he is far from miles away but near in spirit , My regards to him ya Abuna Lazarus. Do keep us updated about Abauna . Alf shukr
is there a way to write Father Lazarus a letter?
The society is brainwashed.
reason why we have many Businessman Priest, which is common in protestant.
Christianity is The tree of life. and finding the love of god is awesome!
>that framerate
now that's what I call ascetic
.
Jesus himself spoke against Mantras:
"But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking."
"And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words."
"And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words."
Holy Eitr i think you misunderstood: vain is the keyword here. like about me me me what i want and ego.might want to research this more. Jesus prayer is to draw the mind in to a trance ...to draw you in to a meditation and communion with God. if you give it a try you will see it's extremely powerful deep prayer. Monks use this alot from all traditions. And the Rosary is the most effective weapon against the devil. if it doesn't work for you then don't use it - simple. no need to criticize their ways because they're different....many paths to God.
you need to lose that floating logo. it distracts from the video
I ought to move to a cave because it’s the only way I could be a good person
That ugly water mark logo across the whole screen spoils this brilliant series
If Anthony was born and raised in Australia, why does he talk like someone whose second language is English? It feels "put on".
