B of Burj El Arab+Amriya: newly established diocese in Dubai, responsible for communities in the Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain. Pope Tawadros II during the ordination: “The monk Hegumen Theophan Ava Mina was nominated and recommended by the bishop and abbot of his monastery, H.G. Bishop Kyrillos Ava Mina. He has been a monk for 12 years and will serve as the bishop of a new diocese — Borg El Arab and Amreya. It is a promising area that is growing day by day, with significant pastoral work, many universities, and numerous factories. He has chosen for himself the name of Bishop Mina.”
