One day Saint Menas came into the town and filled with the Holy Spirit he confessed his faith in Christ.
“My fatherland is Egypt, my name is Menas. I was an officer, but witnessing the worship of idols, I renounced your honours. I now come before you all to proclaim my Christ as the True God, that He may proclaim me as His servant in the Heavenly Kingdom.”
