The Six Winged Saint: The Life of St Takla Hymanot

The Six Winged Saint: The Life of St Takla Hymanot Welcome to the St. Shenouda Podcast! In this episode, we delve into the extraordinary life of Saint Takla Haymanot the Ethiopian, a beacon of faith revered across the Coptic, Ethiopian, and Eritrean Orthodox Churches. Born as Feseha Zion (“Joy of Zion or the Churches”) on 24th December 1215 in Ethiopia, his birth was a divine miracle to his devout parents, Priest Tsega Ze’ab (“the gift of father”) and Egzi’e Hareya (“the chosen of Lord,” also known as Sarah), after years of prayer for a child who would love and serve God.
