With hearts full of faith, trust, and hope, we bid farewell to our beloved father and faithful shepherd, His Holiness Pope Shenouda III. We have full confidence that his pure soul is praying on our behalf before the throne of grace.
Remembering his labor, shepherdhood, and fatherhood, we pray that God may repose his holy soul in the Paradise of Joy in the bosom of our holy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
May he pray on our behalf and on behalf of his people whom he loved, served, and sacrificed all the days of his life.
