I wonder sometimes why our Australian Coptic community try to do something for those people who are suffering in Egypt??!! mate we saw , we heard about persecution in our life time but such type of persecution we never heard about it in our modern civilized world ….i do not know anybody over there but i feel distressed as a human being why they treat those people over there like that ??! they must have a fair go , they must have their basic rights to live without fear regardless of their background , color ,beliefs , work and sex….pal the situation is getting worst over there ….Coptes over there rely entirely on the church to protect them and look after their affairs …somebody asked , where are those church leaders over there, why not take responsibility and accountability for all those souls …why not put their life’s for others ???!! why they keep putting their heads in the sand ??!!the other day i read that some say that the role of the church leaders is only spiritual ??!! others said it can not be like this when things are good their role is more than spiritual and on bad things their role is only spiritual ???!!i wonder who is going to look after all these souls???!!i believe our Lord will never abandon them … Mses with the support of God stood for them before ….we might need to wait for another Moses ???!!please pray for them and i believe we need a special day to raise prayers in all our churches in Australia …it would be good also to raise our voices also in any of those international human rights organizations such amnesty international etc…..fellow Copte do not be selfish and do an act of love to assist , at least a day prayer for them ….we are not politicians and we never mix politics with religion but we love our christian way of life of fair go on merits and rights for any body to live without fear ….we must look after all these least ….faith without deeds is dead ….

I believe we must live our life as our lord taught us guided by our christian values which is actually our way of life …..we must practice what we preach …we must live and practice the bible in our daily life and we must set the good example for one another and for our children …we must live as Christians otherwise we will be sending the wrong message to a lot of generations to come … we learned from our wonderful councilor our lord Jesus Christ in his life on earth and all those great bible values that always we HIT THE SIN AND NOT THE SINNER ….oh pals if you do not talk and work constructively and positively nothing will be fixed in our Australian Coptic Community facing a lot of challenges in our dynamic fast nature of life ….yes we have got problems like any other communities and i believe yes we are all keen to fix it and work in it to the best of our ability ……. all of us we do mistakes but we are not going to crucify one another …we need to stop and look back, identify our problems and our needs and work on it … i believe every church must start initially with an army of team of priests , servants , volunteers , deacons and must sit regularly in a meeting discussing issues of concerns of our relevant church community , could be visitations , Sunday schools , gambling , crisis , isolation , finance , needs of the poor , needs of conferences , forums , education and development of skills eg we can not put a servant in Sunday school and he is blind and expecting him to guide a blind .. it might be a good idea if we put a priest in every church just to organize those conferences , coordinate education and develop skills for priests , servants and the whole relevant church community …another priest for visitations and problems and so on and they can rotate so often so they can learn equally and not to be stale on task on hand …i believe if our church is positively keen about that they will find heaps of constructive suggestion and volunteers …at the end of the day i believe all of us agree that something positive and constructive must be done …we can do it because we have the ability and determination , we have the knowledge , we have our christian values and we love God from all our hearts and we love our neighbor as own self , we know the nature of our country and the system and we know the way of our life …as God was with us and gave us support in the last 40 years i believe God will be with us for the next 40 years to praise his name all the time by our life but we need the good intention and good faith and we must work all as a team ……..we look forward to see our holiness Bishop Daniel with us soon and his blessing would be great for a great positive revolution in getting back trust and acceptance in our community in this part of the world …truly our church is not buildings but our believers community who are focusing all the time on Jesus and the great eternal life for every soul , amen …..SO PAL YOU HAVE GOT A ROLE IN FRONT OF GOD AS WELL AS IN FRONT YOUR COMMUNITY ,TALK CONSTRUCTIVELY AND INVOLVE POSITIVELY , DO SOMETHING MATE TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY !!!!???
