Coptic Liturgy at the Cathedral of Deir Anba Bishoy
The Cathedral of Deir Anba Bishoy in Wadi Natrun.
A Coptic priest performs a portion of the liturgy during preparations for the communion service.
This was part of the transubstantiation as the wine and bread are transformed into the body and blood of Christ. The big bundle in the center of the altar contains the bread and wine.
The Coptic language is as close as we can come to hearing the sound of the ancient Egyptian language.

دير الانبا بيشوى- Monastery of Saint Anbba Bishoy- Egypt--Bekhit Fahim
The Monastery of Saint Pishoy in Wadi El Natrun (the Nitrian Desert), Beheira Governorate, Egypt, is the most famous Coptic Orthodox monastery named after Saint Pishoy. It is the easternmost monastery among the four current monasteries of the Nitrian Desert.
The monastery was founded by Saint Pishoy in the fourth century AD. On 13 December 841 AD (4 Koiak) 557 AM, Pope Joseph I fulfilled the desire of Saint Pishoy and moved his body as well as that of Saint Paul of Tammah to this monastery. Up to that date, the bodies of the two saints were at the monastery of Saint Pishoy at Deir el-Bersha. Today, the two bodies lie in the main church of the Coptic Orthodox Monastery of Saint Pishoy in the Nitrian Desert.
Today, the Monastery of Saint Pishoy contains the relics of Saint Pishoy, Saint Paul of Tammah, as well as the relics of other saints. Eyewitnesses recount that the body of Saint Pishoy remains in incorruption until the present day. Pope Shenouda III is also interred there.
The monastery has five churches, the main one being named after Saint Pishoy. The other churches are named after the Virgin Mary, Saint Iskhiron, Saint Georges[disambiguation needed], and Archangel Michael. The monastery is surrounded by a keep, which was built in the fifth century AD to protect the monastery against the attacks of the Berbers. An initial castle was built early in the twentieth century, but was later replaced by a four-storied castle built by Pope Shenouda III. In addition, the monastery contains a well known as the Well of the Martyrs. Coptic tradition says that the Berbers washed their swords in this well after having killed the Forty Nine Elder Martyrs of Scetes, and subsequently threw the bodies of the martyrs in the well before Christians buried the bodies in the nearby Monastery of Saint Macarius the Great.
Under the reposed Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church, Shenouda III, the Monastery of Saint Pishoy began to expand, with new land around the monastery purchased and developed. Cattle breeding, and poultry dairy facilities were also developed. Ancient buildings and churches were also restored, and cells for monks, retreat houses, a residence for the Coptic Pope, annexes for a reception area, an auditorium, conference rooms as well as fences and gates were built. Shenouda was buried here after his death in March 2012.

Interfaith Tensions in Egypt
In recent years, tensions between Christians and Muslims in Egypt have increased. In 2005 there were Christian demonstrations in Alexandria and reports of Muslims kidnapping young Christian women are also on the rise. Although Copts abroad believe these stories are part of the Christian persecution in Egypt, the 'kidnappings' are often not as simple as they appear and sometimes are, in fact, conversion cases.
St Macarius Coptic Monastery
The Monastery of Saint Macarius (Arabic: دير الأنبا مقار) is a Coptic Orthodox monastery located in Wadi El Natrun, Beheira Governorate, about 92 km north west of Cairo, and off the highway between Cairo and Alexandria.

From its foundation in the 4th century up to the present day, the monastery has been continuously inhabited by monks.

Monastery of Saint Anthony-Egypt-دير الأنبا أنطونيوس-Bekhit Fahim
The Monastery of Saint Anthony is a Coptic Orthodox monastery standing in an oasis in the Eastern Desert of Egypt, in the southern part of the Suez Governorate. Hidden deep in the Red Sea mountains, it is located 334 km (208 mi) southeast of Cairo. It is one of the oldest monasteries in the world, together with Saint Catherine's Monastery on Mount Sinai, which also lays claim to that title. The Monastery of Saint Anthony was established by the followers of Saint Anthony, who is considered to be the first monk. The Monastery of St. Anthony is one of the most prominent monasteries in Egypt and has strongly influenced the formation of several Coptic institutions, and has promoted monasticism in general. Several patriarchs have been pulled from the monastery
In the Church of the First Born
In the Congregation of the Saints
He Stands with great respect
Peniot Ava Antonious
Stands with great esteem
Among those who wear the eskeem
On the rank of the Cherubim
Peniot Ava Antonious
With Spirit-filled prayers
With a godly life story
You consecrated the wilderness
Striving in prayers
Tens and tens of years
With tears and prostrations
Peniot Ava Antonious
Monastic in your fasts
The days never last
Your soul seeks no rest
Ascetic when pleasures appear
Resonating the eternal appeal
And contemplating spiritual feel
You received the spirit of Elijah
And of the Prophetess Hannah
And John, the Son of Zachariah
The Devils were all terrified
Because of your faithful heart
And your continuous prayers
Peniot Ava Antonious
They fought you with no rest
With all the power and risk
And so many tricks
With your sister they reminded you
So as to disturb you
And to annoy you
Peniot Ava Antonious
They scattered gold and change
On the mountains to tempt you
Glittering on the desert sand
They moved with pride and chant
In the likeness of women
To cause you to fall in their traps
They took the form of lions
And tigers and lynx
Screaming like fierce winds
They gathered to harm you
And to frighten you by their view
But humility saved you
Peniot Ava Antonious
I wonder at your gathering
And consider my weakness
I am weaker than your smallest
St. Antonious, you are a tower
Strong and full of power
You humbled yourself to the devils
You are power and a symbol
For those who seek the example
You are dweller of high mountains
An example of virginity
And power of spirituality
And calmness of the wilderness
Your life is a light
And nice-smelling incense
Like a psalm to recite joyfully
You are great in tribulations
You are wise in temptations
Intercede on our behalf
Can we follow your example
Can we trace your every step
Pray on our behalf
