In life’s vast game, each of us holds a crucial role, united by the teachings and love of Jesus Christ. Guided by Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” we face challenges together with integrity and compassion. Our diverse team, supported by faith, grows more robust and resilient, celebrating each victory in fellowship. As we play, let’s lift each other, embracing growth opportunities and always aiming to mirror God’s love for the world.

My journey with this service began with a small group visiting low-income families each month. Initially, our efforts seemed manageable, but God had a much grander plan for us. As our mission expanded, we welcomed more volunteers and reached even more families in need. This service’s success relies on the unwavering support of our Lord, the Church, His Holiness Pope Tawadros, and partners from the USA, Australia, Canada, and the UAE.
Without them, we wouldn’t have achieved this impact or witnessed the miracles unfolding daily. This service has transformed our lives and blessed many families. I invite everyone to join us and experience the fulfillment that comes from making a real difference in the lives of others.

The "Shepherd and Mother of Light" service embodies Jesus Christ's command: "Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me" (Matthew 25:40). This is not just a duty; it’s a personal ministry to Christ. Those we serve often say, "Today, Christ has visited us," reminding me that each act of service is an offering to Him. I ponder: If Christ were in my place, how would His compassion be shown? This service has evolved into a way of life as we remember, pray for, and strive to meet the needs of those we help with dignity and respect. This service beautifully balances giving and receiving. Blessed are those who care for others, for God's promises remain true! I am humbled by this role, knowing that true strength comes from God alone.
