Christine's Service
Christine was a dedicated servant in the church. Before She left for the monastery trip, she recorded in her own voice this song and left it for her mother to teach the angels choir as part of the preparation for St. George Celebration at St. George Church, San Jose, CA in May 2003.:

Christine's Love for the Coptic Language
Christine was very fond of the Coptic Language. She regularly attended hymns classes and enjoyed learning new Coptic words and their meanings. She also loved to use Coptic in her greetings; always with a smile and a quick "Nofri Shai" (Happy Feast Day) on Church Feast Days. Christine wrote the words to this Coptic song titled "Our Egyptian Language" which she heard on a tape of songs by a youth choir in Egypt, in the hopes of translating it and perhaps teaching it to others.



Agpeya project:
Christine loved the children of Sunday school and enjoyed doing hands-on projects with them. This "giant-size" Agpeya was a project that she led to help the children learn about the Coptic hours of prayer and the meaning of each hour.
