Edmonton’s Coptic Christian community welcomes Pope Tawadros II
It’s not every day that a pope comes to Edmonton.
Edmonton’s Coptic Christians packed a Mill Woods church Wednesday night for the arrival of Pope Tawadros II.
The 61-year-old Egyptian pontiff arrived shortly before 8 p.m. for a two-hour visit. Along with a procession and a tour, Tawadros gave a sermon on prayer and handed out pictures to roughly 800 members and visitors who packed the gym at St. Mary and St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church.
