St. Mena’s relics—his holy bones—in Mariut’s monastery are venerated for God’s healing grace. Coptic pilgrims touch them, praying for sick siblings or sad hearts, and miracles follow. One tale says a girl with a fever visited the shrine, and after her father prayed, she woke and her fever was gone, through Mena’s intercession. The relics, kept in a sacred reliquary, are venerated as signs of God’s grace, inspiring hope through Mena’s intercession.
These relics are God’s way of helping through Mena’s intercession today. Ethiopian tales call Mena a healer who never stops. One tale says a boy’s sprained ankle eased after his mother brought home shrine dust. For young believers, these relics are signs of God’s grace through Mena’s intercession, healing through Christ’s love, stronger than any hurt.
