Martin of Tours was my confirmation Saint.
I can only aspire to be so charitable.
This is such a beautiful story. Hopefully one day we will all be blessed enough to be welcomed into the kingdom as friends of Christ
Yes Yes!!one Day!!!!THANKS TO GOD!!
As one training to, God-willing, serve as a clinical chaplain I was blessed by your discussion of the history/etymology of chaplaincy. This channel is a wonderful representation of Orthodox Christianity's beauty, evangelism, and hospitality. May it continue to be blessed!
My patron Saint. Holy Martin pray for us
I look forward to every video you two put out. The hard work doesn't go unnoticed. keep it up you guys, and God bless.
Thank You Sir on a wonderful story of my patron saint.God bless you.
He's a wonderful saint indeed!
Nice story telling
Yesterday we were Blessed to go to a Church not far away called Saint Martin of Tours ❤️ we even held the keys to the Church ❤️🙏💃🕺🇺🇸
DUDE! You all teach us something in EVERY episode. Excellent stuff.
But like isn’t that what the channels for
@@reidcarter5022 you make a valid point, good sir
My Name Is Martin Rodriguez and I'm Named After My Blessed and Holy Patron Saint Martin of Tours. It's A Name Worthy To Live Upright and Circumspect As I'm A Byzantine Rite Eastern Orthodox ☦️, Having Recently Converted From Latin Rite Roman Catholicism. Thank Almighty God In The Name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, For This Awesome Possom Video On My Blessed and Holy Patron Saint Martin of Tours.
We had a St Martin lamp Procession in the local University this year. A few years ago I visited Tour and was able to pray at his shrine. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, father!
Such a beautiful story! Made me cry a little hahaha😂🙏🏻
Me too.
Thank you for the story and the the origin of chapel and chaplain. Now I can expand the story of Martin of Tours to my grandchildren.
Thank you!
Very glad you enjoyed it! God bless!
We heard this story at primary school, those were the days!
Here in Denmark we commemorate Martin of Tours on the 11th of november (that's today) by feasting on duck (since geese were too big for out kitchens and aren't traditionally eaten here - but Danes love duck :P) we do however call it "mortenaften" (Morten's evening)
Thats curious, here in Germany there's a tradition to eat a goose (Martinsgans, literally "Martin-goose") for Saint Martin's day!
I'm not Christian, but I was never taught anything else than the very basics of the story, which is him taking the cloak, cutting it in half and giving it to a homeless person, I was never taught the detail of cloaks being thick, or expensive, or the fact that he slept outside that night and that he helped the beggar with the fire. I always assumed he trotted past him on his horse, gave the beggar a thin half of his cloak and continued onward, that's what I assumed from the picture we always saw.
The details help don't they! Thanks for watching
Holy and Venerable Martin of Tours pray for us sinners!!
I am learning and learning. Thank you, fellas!
I love these, keep of the good work!
St. Martin of Tours is my patronal saint. The story of the cloak and the miracle thereafter was the reason I chose this holy man as my beloved saint. I am constantly in need of the reminder to be merciful and generous to my neighbor.
Holy Father Martin, merciful saint of Tours, pray to God for us!
I love this story! :) Thank you for telling us about him, and now I can celebrate his day
I do have a request as a new convert. I would love to know more about Name days. I feel like many people don't really talk about it and it various so much between countries and Churches. Its almost a tradition that should be encouraged to honor our saints.
Noted! We should all definitely be celebrating name days, and a lot more saints days. It just adds so much to our year and our life in Christ!
That was awesome. I had no idea.
Where can we buy those cups? They look amazing.
I don't even need to say I love the video because I always do.
The mugs are available as supporter/donation mugs via our Ko-Fi page: ko-fi.com/patristix
Thanks for the kind words, friend!
So very interesting!
I hadn't made the connection about Veterans'/Remembrance Day and St. Martin. How neat! Carrot cake tea sounds wonderful.
What an amazing story.
🙏
Excellent 👍💖☦️
This makes me feel sad. How many times might I have walked by Christ without noticing, simply ignoring Him? :(
Lord, have mercy on me, and be patient with me. Help me become better. Break through my cold heart, please. In Jesus's holy name...
Omg.. I love the mug! Is it new? Where can I purchase it please? 😍
Thanks, Matrona! Yes it's new and a very comfortable mug to hold. It's available as part of a donation at our Ko-Fi support page: ko-fi.com/s/850e63b0cd
@@Patristix thank you!
Thank you. How many saints is there in Orthodox.. mm.. mmm.. tradition? Thx
Millions, possibly billions we have a feast day on December 29th commemorating "All Orthodox Christians who died as martyrs for the glory of Christ by hunger, thirst, freezing, and by the sword"
I see. So no list of canonized special people. Got it, thank you.
@@setsappa1540 Isn't the Orthodox Calendar such a list?
@Christian Hopchas Thank you, I was going to figure, if there is a source of basic info on perhaps each one of them while presuming it is somewhat limited and known group. But its more organic and blending in the mythical background, I see. Ye, lets not measure Heavens. ^^
@@setsappa1540 There's a readily available "101 Orthodox Saints" illustrated book with at least a few paragraphs about each of the saints included .
I'm sure the Armistice that ended World War I did not just randomly occur on a day known for a patron Saint of soldiers - both in the Western and Eastern Churches. In the United States , November 11 is a Federal holiday called Veterans Day where all of our military veterans are honored .
