Weekly Schedule

Grace and peace to you all,

This Sunday is the 1^st of El-Nasi (the Little Month). This month has five days in three consecutive years and six days in a leap year.

During the month of Mesra, the last full month of the Coptic year, and El-Nasi, the Church wants to remind her children of the end of earthly life and the end of the world.

📖 The Gospel reading for this Sunday’s Divine Liturgy is from Matthew 24:3-35

“For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.” Matthew 24:27
