Pope Gabriel I of Alexandria
Pope Gabriel I of Alexandria was the Coptic Pope of Alexandria and Patriarch of the See of St. Mark.
The great father St. Gabriel, 57th Pope of Alexandria, became a monk at a young age, practicing many worships. He loved solitary life and wept much while praying, asking the Lord to save him from the snares of the devil.
When Pope Mikhael, 56th Pope, departed, they chose this father to be the Pope in his place. He was ordained in the year 910 A.D. against his will. He cared for the church affairs well, and the duties of the patriarchate did not prevent him from his worship and asceticism.
He spent most of his days in the wilderness and whenever he had some affairs to take care of in Cairo or Alexandria, he would leave and then return to the wilderness. He fought against the flesh and the devil by increasing fasting, watching, prayers and humility. He used to wake up in the night, put on a ragged garment, take a metal shovel and go around the bathrooms of the monks' cells, washing and cleaning them. He did the same for many years until the Lord looked upon his humility and humble heart, so He relieved his pains and gave him the grace of victory over sin and the body. This father was a worshiper, fighter and a preacher for 11 years, then he departed in peace.
