In the Footsteps of Christ: Following the Holy Family’s Journey Through Egypt

Описание: “Out of Egypt I called My Son” (Matthew 2:15)
Every year on June 1st (24 Pashons), the Coptic Orthodox Church commemorates one of the most extraordinary journeys in sacred history: the Flight of the Holy Family into Egypt.
Join us as we retrace their sacred path—guided by Scripture, tradition, and centuries of memory—and explore the origins of this uniquely Coptic feast, the miracles along the way, and the sites that still bear witness to the presence of Christ, and His Holy Family in the land of Egypt.
“Blessed is Egypt My people” (Isaiah 19:25)
