Today it has been one week since a 22 year old suicide bomber took
the lives of 25 and wounded 49 Coptic Christians during mass at the church next
to St Mark's Cathedral. St Mark's is the seat of Egypt's Orthodox Christian
church in Cairo. Supposedly, the Muslim Brotherhood is being blamed for the
attack according to authorities. This type of attack is very sad, and we all
should be praying for our brothers and sisters in Egypt, and for the families
of those who were killed. If you don’t know what a Coptic Christian is, I
suggest you get informed because they are one of the oldest Christian
communities on our planet founded in the year 42 by Saint Mark. This previous
fact should tell you their history in the church goes back to the very beginning.
Blessings and get involved praying or doing something!
This blog seeks to promote and establish ecumenism among all groups and denominations of the Christian Faith via expressions in written language, and through any means of communication. We seek the promotion of others that are working towards the same common goal, as well. The prayer of Jesus in John 17: 21 was: "I pray that they may all be one…." Ultimately and eternally, the creation of unity among all believers and followers of Christ is sought desiring harmony with and for all of humanity.
