The Coptic Orthodox Community of St Chad, worshipping at St Paul’s Church, Church Square, Burslem is showing the BBC documentary Extreme Pilgrim – Ascetic Christianity on Monday, 21st September at St Paul’s Church starting at about 7:00 pm.
The evening will begin with a short period of Orthodox Prayer, and then the video will be shown, followed by some refreshments and conversation.
All are welcome. This is a very interesting documentary about the experience of an Australian man who became an Orthodox monk living in the mountains above the ancient monastery of St Anthony in Egypt.
