The Last Anchorite


St. Antony's Coptic Monastery
                                  

  I came across this two part documentary on youtube and I found it very well put together. I gives you a nice compact glance into coptic monasticism and life as a hermit. Father Lazarus is from the Coptic church which it must be noted, is not a canonical orthodox church, but none the less God shines forth from him. Its always beautiful to witness an atheist conversion to christianity. His story is quite touching and he speaks with such love that it can almost bring you to tears. Enjoy.
