  • Green Pilgrim City Theological Message Pilgrimage in the Coptic
    Green Pilgrim City Theological Message Pilgrimage in the Coptic Church Since its establishment in the first century, the Coptic Orthodox Church has existed in Egypt and has as one of its principal pillars a movement and way of life that commenced in her deserts and wildernesses and, from there, spread to the whole world. This phenomenon is, of course, the monastic movement that started in the deserts of Egypt in the third Century and still thrives across the country until today. Being central to the lives of many Christians in Egypt and abroad, the monasteries are frequented by pilgrims throughout the year, who reach their thousands on special feast days in the Coptic Calendar. The monasteries have always been essential for spiritual retreat, and in the current climate, have become visitors’ havens of reflection, contemplation and refuge in the midst of a bustling society embattled by historic political reform and the accompanying security and economic pressures Today, thousands of Coptic Christians from across Egypt and around the world make the journey to the monasteries to escape the constant noise of modern life and to share in the gentle silence of the wilderness that our desert fathers and mothers have lived for centuries, experiencing the words of our Creator Himself Who says “be still and know that I am God” (Psalms46:10). These pilgrims are also accompanied by many thousands of non-Coptic visitors throughout the year. The deserts, void of the heavy distractions of civilisation and unblemished by large secular settlements, have been the rich soil from which great wisdom has sprung forth.

  • Becoming Saints: Coptic Orthodox Monasticism, Exemplarity, & Negotiating Christian Virtue
    Becoming Saints: Coptic Orthodox Monasticism, Exemplarity, & Negotiating Christian Virtue by Joseph Youssef A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by Joseph Youssef (2019) Becoming Saints: Coptic Orthodox Monasticism, Exemplarity, & Negotiating Christian Virtue Joseph Youssef Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Based on 13 months of transnational ethnographic fieldwork between Egypt, Southern California, and Toronto, this dissertation examines questions around exemplarity, morality, and the cultivation of virtue among Coptic Orthodox Christians. Specifically, this thesis investigates the relationship between Coptic monks and the wider Coptic community. Many Copts view monasticism as a morally exemplary way of life. The monk as one who has forsaken all social ties and lives in the desert is regarded as one who has attained the highest form of virtue. This view results in different levels of engagement with monastic practice and competing voices for what it means to be a Coptic Christian. As will be demonstrated through ethnographic details, there is a gap between the ideals of the Coptic monastic imaginary and the lived reality of negotiating Christian virtue for monks and laity alike. Furthermore, this dissertation unpacks the ways in which Coptic monasticism is (re-)imagined and (re-)produced in North America and how Coptic subjectivity is (re-)negotiated in relation to Egypt and the Mother Church. ii Acknowledgments Becoming exemplary is a process as this dissertation will soon show. Whether one strives to be the best monk, Christian, or anthropologist, there are many along the path who are a part of this process, who challenge, encourage, and patiently watch for the individual to grow and formulate their vocation.

  • Towards Modern Birth Control Methods in the Coptic Orthodox Church
    Family Forum 2019 DOI: 10.25167/FF/1090 Jaroslav Franc Palacky University Olomouc Matthew the Poor: Towards Modern Birth Control Methods in the Coptic Orthodox Church Abstract The paper is focused on the Matta el-Meskeen (Matthew the Poor) and his reflection of se- lected bioethical issue: birth control. The paper deals with the forming stages of the bioeth- ical discussions within the Coptic Orthodox Church in Egypt. The research is based on Mat- thew the Poor’s articles and books. The first part presents his teachings about theosis as an key concept of his theology in general and bioethics in particular. The second part brings analysis of his birth control reflections and presents his observations about the role of the Church and the state in the decision making process of Christian believers. Keywords: Matta el-Meskeen, Matthew the Poor, bioethics, theology, the Coptic Orthodox Church, state, Egypt, deification, birth control. Introduction The Coptic Orthodox Church is the largest Christian community within the realm of contemporary Islam. Egyptian Christianians had produced in the first four centuries of Christ Era (CE) the most influential theological schools written in Greek language. After the so-called Chalcedonian crisis the church became more national oriented and was focused on production of theological literature written in Coptic language. However, due to the influence of Islam, from the sec- ond half of the seventh century, Egyptian Christians were motivated to develop specific theological tradition written in Arabic. (Rubenson 1996) In a contemporary Egyptian society Christian believers have been coping with the dynamically developing modern science. One of the most influential 174 Jaroslav Franc fields of research is medicine.

If the world values faithfulness and relies on it to determine the competency of others, how much more should we as Christians value faithfulness? As Christians, we must be faithful in all aspects of our lives. This is one of the many ways that we thank God and show our gratitude, by being honest in what we are given.
