The Holy Family in Egypt
We are familiar with the story in Matthew’s Gospel of the flight of the Holy Family to Egypt. In Egypt itself, there are many legends of what happened when they arrived. These stories are much loved in the Orthodox and Coptic Churches of Egypt, Ethiopia and Eritrea.
This is an opportunity to hear them probably for the first time.
We will be joined by Fr Shenouda of the Eritrean Orthodox Church.
Our last three study sessions of 2021 will look at aspects of the story of the birth of Christ from very different perspectives – those of differing faith and church backgrounds. These are opportunities to listen and learn from our neighbours and friends.
They take place on a Tuesday evening from 7.00-8.00pm
