His Holiness Pope Tawadros II inaugurated the Priests and Pastors Committee Conference under the slogan “Shepherds after my own heart” (Jeremiah 3:15). The three-day conference, held from October 14-16, 2024, was attended by 130 priests and pastors from the five member churches of the Council of Churches of Egypt. The meeting was held at the Logos Center in Wadi El Natrun, and lectures were given by His Grace Bishop Hermina, General Bishop, and Father Boulos George, Pastor of St. Mark's Church in Heliopolis. On the closing day of the conference, the Dean of the Coptic Institute for Church Administration and Development gave a lecture on "Vision in Christian Leadership." It is worth noting that the Egyptian Council of Churches was founded by His Holiness the late Pope Shenouda III.
