Out of Egypt: Documentary Clip

I have run into another little gem... this time on YouTube, God bless it. Finally, someone has taken on the plight to create a documentary on the Coptic Church and it's people. In this clip, the narrator breaks down the basics of what Coptic Orthodoxy is (what the word "Coptic" means, what the word "Orthodox" means, fasting, etc). But he also discusses the fellowship between the members... which I believe is done better through a video than anything I could write you about here.

Big shout out to Abouna (Fr.) Michael Sorial from Queens, NY, and His Grace Bishop Angaelos from the United Kingdom. Both of these men make an appearance in this clip and are just a blessing to sit down with and gain knowledge from them. Enjoy!

  1. Natalie, you're right about the video. It conveys the "feel" of the Coptic church. Good choice for your blog.
