u mean ava Tegi?

I think one of the main things we could take a lesson from is that it's not required to be a monk or a clergy to become a saint. Abba Tegi was just a normal person like us who led a simple yet holy life.
He is also a great example when it comes to humility; he would change his name wherever he came so that people wouldn't recognize him (he used the name Tegi (meaning dumb in coptic if i'm not mistaking) and Rewis (the name of his camel)...

Another thing is that he lived in a difficult time with kings and princes humiliating people and christians in particulair, if u have seen the movie, u would have seen how he refused to bow down to the prince of the country, so he was thrown in jail for that, and beaten and humiliated. So, there's a lesson for us, who are always complaining about that we live in such difficult times and such...

hope this helped a bit ;)

Just regarding his name. Teji literally translates to "crazy neighbor"
This just shows us the humility of this saint.

Pray for me,
David
