Coptic Church has always been fascinating to me since the day I met my dear Coptic Christian brother Medhat Baky. Coptic Orthodox are interesting because they're so close to us Eastern Orthodox in both service singing iconography and general believes and undesrstandings in faith. I just stumbled on a very nice old movie showing a lot of "internals" from the kitchen of Coptic Orthodox Church, there are things which are fascinating because Coptic and Armenian church are among the most ancient Christian Churches - http://s.pc-freak.net/url/320 The Coptic Monasteries and Monks of the Egyptian Desert Coptic monasteries very much like Bulgarians are many and each have only a few monks. The faith in Coptic Communities is very strong because of the hostile environment they're forced to live (surrounded by Muslims). We modern Christian has a lot to learn from coptic in terms of indurance of faith. Every now and then a lot of Coptic Christians are being regularly martyred by Muslims making them the newest 21st century martyrs for our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ
