The Lighthouse

02/01/2026

Today we rejoice together as Cassandra and Edgar were baptized in the Holy Sacrament of Baptism and anointed with the holy oil in the Holy Sacrament of Chrismation in the Coptic Orthodox Church, receiving the blessed names Photini and David.

They were then crowned in the Holy Sacrament of Matrimony and completed their joy by receiving their first Holy Eucharist.

What a powerful reminder of God’s grace and the beauty of life in the Church.

Please keep Photini and David in your prayers as they begin this new chapter together. May the Lord grant them unity, peace, and a Christ-centered home.

Qué poderoso recordatorio de la gracia de Dios y de la belleza de la vida en la Iglesia.

Por favor mantengan a Photini y David en sus oraciones mientras comienzan este nuevo capítulo juntos. Que el Señor les conceda unidad, paz y un hogar centrado en Cristo.
