When is Bishop Michael's enthronement? Which churches will encompass his diocese?

the_youngest,

Thanks for the link to this website, but I don't think it has the rites for the enthronement. I may be mistaken.

Meghalo,

I'm not sure when His Grace Bishop Michael will return, but probably not before His Holiness Pope Shenouda's anniversary of being ordained a monk. I am also not sure which churches will be under his diocese, but he did establish essentially all the churches in Virginia, Maryland, and DC.

On a side note, we had a group from Indianapolis over at St. Mark's in DC. We are glad to have had your youth as our guests and we hope that they had a blessed and fruitful time here.

Michael

ok hold on let's get something straight

is enthronement the same as ordination or is enthronement just making a Bishop in charge of a certain area like what happened to Anba Abakeer and the other Bishop?

what they have on the presentations is just the ordination i believe.

they are not the same. There is a special service that is done when a bishop is enthroned. it's like the welcoming of a new priest to his church (not in order of service but in concept).
