EGYPT

From Dr. Tharwat Wahba, Professor of Missions at the Evangelical Theological Seminary in Cairo and Chairman of Pastoral and Outreach Ministries Council, (POMC) 

Dear Egyptian church friends and partners,

Peace in Christ 

Hope all of you are doing fine with your loved ones through COVID-19  pandemic. We pray for God’s protection and mercy to everyone. And “Because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing”, (Isaiah 40:26) NIV, this is our trust in His word as we are in His mighty hands.

In Egypt we are trying to adjust with this new challenge. The Egyptian government is doing great efforts to protect people by putting tough measures trying to limit the spread of the virus. Schools, universities, cafes, and restaurants are closed. Malls and shops are working till 6:00 pm, from Sunday to Thursday and completely closed on Fridays and Saturdays. We are in curfew from 7:00 pm to 6:00 pm, all public transportation stops through these hours. 

However, we can also see many benefits from slowing down and enjoying our families, come close to God asking for His mercy.
