Help us to Help OthersDear brothers and sisters,
Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ!
The last few weeks have been traumatic for Egyptians. We witnessed bloodshed on our
streets, vandalism and the deliberate destruction of churches and government buildings in
lawless acts of revenge. One of our Anglican Churches was attacked, and other ministries
received threats. We praise God that our churches and congregations are safe, but we
grieve for the loss of life and for the churches which were burnt over the past week in Egypt.
The Anglican Church in Egypt serves all
Egyptians, Muslims and Christians, especially thedisadvantaged and marginalized, through our
educational, medical, and community
development ministries. We seek to be a light in
our society, and we continue to serve our
neighbours in the difficult situation which
surrounds us. Unemployment is at a record high,
there is a lack of security on the streets, the
economy is in decline, and poverty is crushing for
many people in Egypt.
Through your support, the Diocese hopes to help in the following areas:
1. The Poorest of the Poor2. Building Capacity of Young Adults3. Spiritual Ministry

1. The poorest of the poor are the most affected by the situation in Egypt. As thechurch, we want to practically show the love of God and provide for people in this
challenging time in Egypt.
Some examples of ways that you could give are:Provide a meal for a poor child ($1 US per day)Visit to a doctor ($2 per visit)Food to feed a family ($5 per day)Subsidy for nursery fees for a child ($20 per
month)
School fees for a year ($50 per year)Emergency surgical operation ($100 per
operation)
2. Building the capacity of young adults:It is very difficult for young people to find jobs, and
the Diocese is empowering young adults (both
hearing and deaf) through vocational training and
micro-loans.
Examples of this are:
Vocational training for 2 months ($150)Vocational training for 6 months ($450)Loan for a small business project ($750)
3. Spiritual MinistryThe Diocese continues to serve our
congregations, to teach the Word of God, and
to reach the unreached. You can:
