Dear Beloved Members of St Verena & St Bishoy Church Congregation,

We are delighted to invite you to join our Diocese family for a historic and joyous gathering!

On Saturday, 12 September, the Coptic Orthodox Diocese of Melbourne comes together in one heart and one spirit to celebrate the Feast of El Nayrouz – the Coptic New Year. We warmly invite every member of our St Verena & St Bishoy parish to be part of this special celebration of faith, fellowship and unity.

Event Details

Date: Saturday, 12 September
Location: 100 Park Rd, Donvale
Host: His Grace Bishop Rewis and our beloved Clergy

Why Attend?

El Nayrouz is a sacred time to remember the steadfast faith of the saints and martyrs, to give thanks for God’s countless blessings, and to rejoice as one united Church. This Diocese-wide festival is a wonderful opportunity to strengthen the bonds that unite us—not only within our parish, but as one family across our entire Diocese in Christ.

Bring your family and friends from our parish community. Together, let us celebrate our rich Coptic Orthodox heritage and experience this day of joy, fellowship, and thanksgiving.

Celebrating Faith. Embracing Heritage. United as One.

Blessings,

Fr. Pestavros and the Parish Council
