Thank you Honolulu Habitat for Humanity. It was our pleasure to serve with you. ❤️

Thanks to generous friends like you, St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church of Honolulu has met its fundraising goal before the end of the year! The Church is now in compliance with its loan agreement as it pertains to excess cash reserves and will continue to serve her faithful through the parish and the larger Hawaiian community through The Hawaiian Mission. God bless you and Happy New Year! Father Anastasi Saint Antony

Dear Coptic Orthodox Community and Friends, Merry Christmas! St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Church of Honolulu needs your help for its survival. The Church's loan lender set a condition of income to expense ratio of 1:05 to 1 when it purchased its property. In other words, unless the Church financial statement displays $1.05 income for every $1 in expense for the year, the lender could cancel the loan and force the Church to either pay the full loan amount (more than $2 million) or sell the church/property. No one wants to lose the church or see it sold, but in order for the financial statement to express the 1:05 to 1 ratio, the Church needs to deposit at least $25,000 before the end of the year and we're asking the community for help. St. Mark's has been around in Honolulu for nearly 30 years, and this property has belonged to the church since 2004. It holds priceless memories for many; from baptisms to weddings to young deacons being ordained, everyone here holds it dear in their hearts. Everyone here is family. Whether you’re just visiting or moving to the islands, the church is a home away from home for its welcoming, loving and supportive congregation. Every dollar donated helps us meet this $25,000 requirement. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and generosity! May God reward you a hundredfold. "And Jesus said to them, 'I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst." - John 6:35 https://www.gofundme.com/st-mark-coptic-orthodox-church-of-honolulu

Happy belated birthday Father Anastasi! ❤️

"Today He who hung the earth upon the waters is hung upon the cross. He who is King of the angels is arrayed in a crown of thorns. He who wraps the heavens in clouds is wrapped in the purple of mockery...We venerate your passion, O Christ. Show us also your glorious Resurrection." - Cyril of Alexandria

"Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act."

So grateful for such a full house yesterday! We're fortunate to have Father Seraphim back with us for a short time and with him a mission group from the mainland! Welcome to our ohana ❤️
