Fr. Pishoy participated in the Clergy Seminar which was held at St. Mary’s Vineyard in Boston from September 14 – 16, 2009 and led by H. H. Pope Shenouda III. During the seminar, Fr. Pishoy had the blessing of meeting with His Holiness to update sayedna about the latest news of the church in preparation for waiving the conditions on the land and the architectural design. After some review, His Holiness blessed and signed the drawings and prayed for the success of the project. May our Lord preserve for us the life and standing of our honoured father H.H. Pope Shenouda III for many more years to come.
