Under the auspices of His Grace Bishop Peter, Bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Diocese of North, South Carolina, and Kentucky, the Diocese Fathers and Servants are organizing the third annual Diocese Servants Retreat. This Retreat series is an opportunity for the Servants to benefit from His Grace's guidance, grow spiritually, enhance their preparation to serve, establish a sense of community among Servants across Diocese Churches, and share experiences and collaborate on addressing challenges they face in their service. The Retreat is restricted to Servants and their families due to the limited space in the Convent, and it is the responsibility of each Church's Father and Service Coordinator to ensure that registrants are active Servants in their Church. Please also share with your Servants the rules of the Convent and ensure they will strictly abide by these rules during the Retreat for our own benefit and also as an expression of gratitude to our mothers and sisters the nuns for their generous welcome of our group. Please pray that this, and every service in the Diocese and across the universal Church is blessed by the prayers of His Grace and our fathers.
