St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church, Canberra - Australia

St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church, Canberra - Australia Built according to the Coptic Architectural style, the Church adds to the splendid character of the National Capital.

In March 1989 with the blessing of His Holiness Pope Shenouda III, work started to establish a church dedicated to St Mark in Canberra. On November 20, 1989, His Holiness laid the foundation stone of the church and within only fifteen months the church was fully completed and officially opened by Pope Shenouda on Friday, February 8, 1991 in an impressive ceremony attended by several heads of Chur

ches and Civic leaders including the Speaker of the Federal Parliament, Mr Leo McLeay representing the then Prime Minister, Mr Hawke; the former NSW Premier Mr Barrie Unsworth and the Egyptian Ambassador to Australia, Mr Adel El Khodary. On the following day, Pope Shenouda III, accompanied by nine Bishops consecrated the Altar and Icons of the Church; concelebrating with His Holiness were nineteen priests from Australia, America and England.

Happy Feast of Pentecost!

“Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (Acts 2:3-4)

Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen!
Today, we celebrate the victory of life over death, light over darkness, and hope over despair.
The tomb is empty, and our hearts are full.
‘He is not here; for He is risen, as He said.’ (Matthew 28:6)
Rejoice in the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ — the cornerstone of our faith and the promise of eternal life.
المسيح قام … بالحقيقة قام
اليوم نحن نحتفل بنصرة الحياة علي الموت، النور علي الظلمة، الرجاء علي اليأس. هوذا القبر فارغ و قلوبنا مملوءة.
لَيْسَ هُوَ ههُنَا، لأَنَّهُ قَامَ كَمَا قَالَ! هَلُمَّا انْظُرَا الْمَوْضِعَ الَّذِي كَانَ الرَّبُّ مُضْطَجِعًا فِيهِ. (مت ٢٨: ٦).
فلنفرح بقيامة ربنا و مخلصنا يسوع المسيح حجر زاوية ايماننا و وعد الحياة الأبديّة.

Today, we bow our heads in solemn remembrance of the greatest act of love. On this Holy and Good Friday, we reflect on the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ on the Cross — a sacrifice that brought salvation to the world.
‘But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities… and by His stripes we are healed.’ (Isaiah 53:5)
Let us walk with Christ through the cross, trusting in the hope of the Resurrection.

اليوم نحني رؤوسنا ذاكرين اعظم صنيع حب. في هذه الجمعة العظيمة نحن نتامل في ذبيحة الصليب التي لالهنا يسوع المسيح. ذبيحة قد جلبت الخلاص للعالم.
وَهُوَ مَجْرُوحٌ لأَجْلِ مَعَاصِينَا، مَسْحُوقٌ لأَجْلِ آثَامِنَا. تَأْدِيبُ سَلاَمِنَا عَلَيْهِ، وَبِحُبُرِهِ شُفِينَا. (أش ٥٣: ٥).
فلنسير مع المسيح في الصليب، واثقين في رجاء القيامة
