The Coptic Church
Coptic church are more orthodox in their services. It was quite different but I was getting into the swing of things. I just wished I could understand the language. I did recognize hallelujah & amen though. There was a great atmosphere that was enhanced by the candle lighting everywhere.
We walked to the church area after we got settled in to our room. |
It was a beautiful walk. The working farm had all kinds of crops. |
Orange trees |
The church, the tile on the exterior walls were hand painted. |
More rooms near the church. |
There was a neat place to sit & rest with beautiful flowers. |
I'm not sure what these are but they are pretty. |
Inside the church at night during the service. |
Even the outside was lit by candle light. We had to remove our shoes before entering. |

WOW! How was that, removing shoes with it being cold & all?
It was very cold, even inside, but not nearly as bad.
