California-based family-oriented parish, Young Adults Ministry, set to host In His Grace Bishop Serapion, Bishop Abraham and Bishop Kirollos, the 2021 edition of their YA Ministry Retreat
Young Adults Ministry of St Justina Coptic Orthodox Church is staying true to their goal of preserving the beauty of Coptic tradition as the parish is set to host the 2021 edition of their annual YA Ministry Retreat. Tagged In His Grace, the event will hold from September 24th to 26th, featuring notable names, such as Archdeacon Mark Soliman, the keynote guest speaker.
Coptic Orthodox Christianity has become increasingly popular over the years, with more people appreciating the beauty of the tenets of the Egypt-based church. However, English-speaking Copts across the globe have not enjoyed the best of services tailored to meet their spiritual needs. Consequently, St Justina Coptic Orthodox Church aims to change this narrative for Copts in and around California as well as other parts of the world, as substantiated with the YA Ministry Retreat.
The 2021 YA Ministry Retreat resonates with the goal of the church to serve English-speaking Copts and converts to Coptic Orthodox Christianity by offering services primarily in English while preserving the beauty of Coptic hymnody. The event will help encourage members to be Christ-centered in each of their actions, services, and activities.
Other benefits of the retreat as promoted by St Justina Coptic Orthodox Church include helping attendees remain committed to creating an environment for spiritual growth in prayer, the Holy Scripture, and the Orthodox faith while actively living their faith within the church and within the community.
Bishops from the Coptic Orthodox Church from all levels have expressed their support and encouragement for the work of St Justina Coptic Orthodox Church, with His Holiness, the Pope Tawadros of Alexandria saying during his visit in 2015 “we appreciate very much what you are doing… you are saving God’s children… As it says in the midnight prayers, you ‘remember those who have no one to remember them.”
