The Apparitions Of Virgin Mary At Zeitoun Church, Egypt. Videos included, as well as testimony of many who saw it- including Muslims.

I have some serious doubts about this appearance of the Theotokos over this church. Wasnt this a monophysite church?

Oh, I forgot...the Theotokos only appears above parishes of the The Most Holy and Blameless Antiochian Archdiocese.

We have to judge a miracle by its fruit. Several Muslims were converted to Christ because of this miracle, so it is authentic.

Besides, the Virgin Mary is the Virgin Mary. She can appear wherever she wants--she could show up at a Protestant Church, and that would say nothing about the status of said Church.

Please note that I do not subscribe to "Old Calendar Ecumenism" and believe that only the Synod of Archbishop Kallinikos is the canonical GOC of Greece. I do believe, however, that we can break down barriers and misunderstandings through prayer and discussion on forums such as this one.

I take it you believe in the fatima "visions" too.
