The question

What do you think is the most unique aspect of the Coptic Orthodox Church in America today compared to American Denominations?

The answer

The Coptic Orthodox Church is a precious jewel, a well-lit candle, a fortress and refuge, a school for all nations, a keeper of the faith, a loyal friend, a mother praying on her knees, and a producer of virtues for more than 2000 years.
