“Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world” Matthew 25:34 It is with heavy hearts that we bid farewell to our beloved father, His Holiness Pope Shenouda III. Although we grieve for his loss from this world, we are filled with gratitude to our Lord for this great shepherd who faithfully led our precious Church for more than four decades. His Holiness taught us meekness and compassion but, more importantly, reminded us that the opportunity to serve the Brethren of the Lord is but another demonstration of God's limitless love and mercy for His children. Our sadness is surpassed only by our gratitude for the time we had with our cherished father. We mourn, but are uplifted by the knowledge that he has now gained the reward for which he struggled. May he continue to intercede for the service of BLESS USA and the Brethren of the Lord before our Heavenly Father.
