last respect to Papa Shenouda

  • በአቡነ ጳውሎስ የሚመራ በርካታ ጳጳሳት የሚገኙበት አንድ ቡድን  ሰኞ ማታ ወደ ግብፅ ካይሮ እንደሚያመራ ከቦታው የደረሰን መረጃ ያመለክታል





ሰዉ ሁሉ በፍስክ ሲያገባ እንዳልኖረ፣
የአንተም አንደበትህ እንዳልመሰከረ፤
ምነዉ የአንተ ጊዜ በጾም አደረግከዉ፤
ሰዉን ጹሙ ብለህ ራስህ ገደፍከዉ፡፡
አሁንማ መልስ ተነሥና አስረዳ፣
ተናገር ጳጳሱ እንስማህ ሺኖዳ፤
በላይ ልትዋሐድ ድግስ አዘጋጅተህ፤
ምእምኑን በምድር ጹሙ ጽኑ ብለህ
ራስክን ሞሽረህ ለምን ትሔዳለህ?

Egyptian Christians gather to mourn the death of Pope Shenouda III, the head of Egypt’s Coptic Orthodox Church, outside the Abassiya Cathedra in Cairo March 18, 2012. Christians gathered on Sunday to pay final respects to Pope Shenouda III, who sought to soothe sectarian tension in his four decades atop Egypt’s Orthodox Church but saw increasing flareups in the majority Muslim nation in the last months of his life.


CAIRO - Egyptian Coptic Christian Pope Shenouda III, the patriarch of most of Egypt’s estimated 12 million Christians, died on Saturday from old age, his political adviser told Reuters.

Bells tolled in Cairo’s Abbasiya district, site of Egypt’s main Coptic cathedral, as the news spread.

Shenouda, 88, became the 117th Pope of Alexandria in November 1971, and was popular among Egypt’s Christians and Muslims alike during his four decades in power.

His successor will play a central role in forging the church’s position in the country after the overthrow of president Hosni Mubarak last year. Islamist parties have since swept parliamentary elections and will dominate the debate over drawing up the country’s new constitution.

“He died from complications in health and from old age,” adviser Hany Aziz said. Shenouda had recently returned from abroad where he had been seeking medical treatment.

Father Anglos Ishaq, head of the church on Egypt’s north coast, said a temporary replacement would be chosen to act as the head of the church until a new pope was selected.

“It is too early to know what will happen next, but what is known is that the oldest bishop in the Holy See will be chosen as charge d’affaires until a new pope gets chosen by elections from different church councils in the different provinces.”

He said the pope’s body was expected to remain in a coffin for three days, provided doctors gave their approval.

“All details about the burial and how long his body will remain for people to come and receive blessings will be decided by doctors,” Father Anglos said. “But surely people will get some time to see the body and receive blessings.”
