Hall of Men Presents Saint Kyrillos VI on June 22

The Hall of Men will gather Thursday evening on the commemoration of Eusebius, Bishop of Samosata, Anno Domini 2023, June 22.

Kevin Mortimer will present on St. Kyrillos VI.

Saint Kyrillos VI (1902-1971) is considered to be the type of person who comes along only once a century. This would make him the 21st type of person since the advent of our Lord. Kyrillos VI's path was one of personal kenosis (Philippians 2) resulting in theosis (II Peter 1:4). This talk will reflect his singular path of solitude as a hermit monk until he arrived, by the providence of God, to the position of patriarch while retaining his life with God and remaining a stranger to all humanity. The result was sweeping changes in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and miracles on a personal level for those seeking his prayers.

If you haven’t seen a Catholic listen to the life story of John Wesley; if you haven’t watched a Protestant learn about Evagrius of Pontus; and if you haven’t seen Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant men sit around a table together and talk theology until midnight . . . then you need to come to the Hall of Men.
