From the Fathers
The Synaxarium
The Martyrdom of Saint Timon the Apostle.
On this day, St. Timon the Apostle, was martyred. He was one of the 70 Apostles, who were chosen and distinguished by the Lord. This saint had the gifts and the ability to heal the sick and to cast out devils. He followed the Lord until His Ascension into heaven and after that, he continued to minister unto the disciples till the grace of the Holy Spirit came upon them all. The Disciples elected him one of the Seven Deacons who were appointed to serve tables. The Bible testified that they were full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom. (Acts 6:2-6)
The Katameros
Readings for the Divine Liturgy
Vespers, Matins, and the Liturgy, in the order the Coptic Church keeps them, with the Synaxarium beside the Gospel.
Holy Gospel
Luke 10:1–20
After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. Then He said to them, "The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.

Ways to give
God loves a cheerful giver.
Each one should give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly. — 2 Corinthians 9:7
