Our new church...

Two weeks ago we attended our first service at our new church home, St. Andrew's United Church of Cairo. Worship at St. Andrew's is on Friday, which is the beginning of the weekend and the primary day of prayer in Egypt and much of Muslim world. One of the blessings of St. Andrew's is the richness of diversity among the community. In this one worship service, there were at least 9 different nationalities represented! We met people from USA, Canada, Philippines, Sudan, Guinea, Nigeria, Finland, Ethiopia, and Egypt. This is such an exciting ministry! We especially enjoy Bible studies at St. Andrew's. It is great fun to take part in faith discussions among people of one faith and yet many different backgrounds and understandings of spirituality and life. Already we are learning much from this community.
