His Grace Bishop Boulos was ordained by His Holiness Pope Tawadros II (118th Pope) in Cairo on June 8th, 2019. Over 500 members of the Coptic Orthodox community received the newly ordained Bishop at Trudeau Airport on Monday, August 19th.

H.G. Bishop Boulos is 47 years old born in Egypt. He completed his education in Medicine. In 2004, he was ordained as a monk in the Baramous Monastery in Egypt as “Father Boulos El Baramousy”.

The Copts are the native Christians of Egypt. The Coptic Church was founded in 42 AD by Saint Mark the Apostle, the author of St. Mark Gospel, and first Patriarch (Pope) of the Coptic Church. The Coptic Orthodox Church has a strong presence throughout Canada, United States, Europe, Australia, and Asia. There has been a consistent Coptic presence in Canada since the 1960s, with large Coptic communities in Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Halifax.
