Fr. Metias, the church board, the deacons, the servants, and all the congregation of the Church of Saint Mina in Hamilton, Ontario congratulate our beloved Fr. Anthony (formerly Eng. Magued Wadie) for His Reverence’s ordination to the priesthood on the holy altar of the new Archangel Raphael and Saint Marina Coptic Orthodox Church of Burlington. The ordination occurred today, Saturday, June 2, 2018 by the holy hands of our father His Grace Bishop Mina of the Diocese of Mississauga, Vancouver, and Western Canada. We also wholeheartedly congratulate Tasoni Caroline Wadie as well as their blessed children Juliana and Veronica as well as all the extended family.
Fr. Anthony has served in @StMinaHamilton (Saint Mina’s Coptic Orthodox Church, Hamilton) for over 20 years in different roles including recently as Secretary General of the Sunday School Service for over 7 years. Fr. Metias would have liked to extend his greetings and share personally in the celebration but due to the surgery he could not attend in person as he is still in hospital but is there in spirit, heart and mind. May our loving God Jesus Christ, the Eternal High Priest grant His Reverence wisdom and grace in the new ministry, and make His Reverence’s service a blessing for all of us and the whole area.
