Mahragan Alkeraza 2014 – Be My Witness

The theme for Mahragan Alkeraza 2014 is “You shall be witnesses to Me” (Acts 1:8). This year, God is asking each one of us to be His witness by:

1. Shining like a star
2. Shining for my family
3. Shining for my Church
4. Shining for my community
5. Shining for my country

We hope that all of you will participate in the Mahragan activities this year, and encourage everyone you know to join us in one of the greatest annual events, presented by our mother, the Coptic Orthodox Church.

May God bless Mahragan Alkeraza this year and the efforts of all the participants and coordinators, through the prayers of our beloved father His Holiness Pope Tawadros II (Pope of Alexandria and Patriarch of the See of St. Mark) and his partner His Grace Bishop Mina (Bishop of Mississauga, Vancouver and Western Canada).

Below is the study material for all grades, and the church also provides special sessions for all grades every Friday from 6:30 to 8:00pm. Please join us and invite others!
