I love how the Coptic church is so global and diverse. The Coptic church is a beautiful gift not just for Egypt but for the world.

I tried the “mixed marriage” approach, having come from a Protestant background. Orthodoxy drew me in, answering questions I had, and over a short period, I decided to become Orthodox. I have never regretted it, and believe I have found the truth

I really love the part where one of the ladies talks about how you have to get involved with the family.  The church starts in the home, and the family who "prays together, stays together", as the saying goes.  Without that solid glue within the family and the body of Christ, there can be no unity.  Glory to God!

We are happy Christian all united in the Lord,  We belong to one family,
Jesus Christ has chosen us to carry on His life,  
over every Land and Sea,
from the North from the South  from the East and West he has called us together so we should be united in God's own family

My husband is a coptic and I'm a protestant! Yeah, i am facing so much challenges with this marriage but God is the center of our marriage; hence, we put our trust in God because we believe in One God!

Love is the Greatest Thing in the Universe, No one or Nothing can separate Us from the Love of Christ. May Good Bless you Married Couples.

There is no place for diversity in Christian teaching...one Lord, one faith, one Baptism

Cracking up at how similar the family relationships are to my Cuban culture. Very big family oriented, multigenerational households, the whole family goes out all together! My daughter who is also a devout and practicing Catholic, is now dating an Egyptian Copt. She is learning arabic and has met his family in Cairo. If God wills marriage for them, I think the only issues they will have will be that of what regular married couples have. Like my grandmother always said, you marry the family, not just the person. Faith unity is also very important.

WE ARE CHRISTIAN. WE ARE DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF WE ARE CATHOLIC, ORTHODOX, PROTESTANT.... ETC. IF WE ARE IN BELIVE IN JESUS.
JESUS IS ONE, FATHER IS ONE, HOLY SPIRIT IS ONE. OUR GOD İS ONE...

Very familiar stuff. I'm married to a lovely coptic woman. I had to be chrismated into te coptic orthodox church to marry but it wasn't a huge step as I already was a protestant christian. I found the liturgical traditions of the coptic orthodox church a huge enrichment to my faith, making it possible for me to discover aspects of the christian life that have fallen into disuse in western churches. As for the multicultural part: dealing with in-laws from a different culture can require patience and a fair bit of diplomacy. But our common belief in Jesus Christ does the most by far to bridge any difference in cultural background!

I pray for the reunion of the Catholic and Orthodox churches like it use to be, like it should be, and the way God wants it to be !!!

I was a Baptist. My wife is Catholic. I decided to marry her and became Catholic. We are very Happy together. I accept most Catholic teaching. But hold to Baptist teaching regarding my Salvation by Faith alone in Christ alone. We as Christians will All go to Heaven! Whether Catholic, Baptist, Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal or Mormon! All are believers in Jesus Christ! We will see each other in Heaven! I am Sure of that! God Bless Us All! ! !

First I just want to say that I have great respect for the Orthodox, Russian, Greek, Oriental, etc.  They are Apostolic Churches; ie, True Churches with Valid Sacraments (Mysteries), and Ministerial Priesthood.  If there is no other Church around except an Orthodox or a Protestant, Orthodox win hands down.  That being said, Christina did NOT need to get baptized again because her Catholic Baptism is VALID and one needs to be baptized once (Nicene creed:  And I believe in one baptism for the remission of sin) That part I have an issue with as Baptism in All of the True Apostolic Churches (Catholic both East and West and the various Orthodox Churches) is VALID.  I know the Russians also require Catholics going into their Church to be rebaptized.  This is wrong.  Orthodox coming into the Catholic Church are not rebaptized as we recognize the baptisms of the Orthodox as valid.

Regardless of religion or ethnicity, you are marrying the whole family. Some people don't realize that.
