Alexandria community youth visit the Religions Complex in Cairo

Together  we develop an Egypt project hosted Alexandria youth from the regions of Agami, Ras al-Soda, Mansheya, and Stanley, in a visit to the Interfaith Complex in Cairo in the ancient Egypt region, followed by a Nile cruise, according to an official statement from the Episcopal/Anglican Church

On his behalf, Archbishop Mouneer Hanna met the youth at the end of the visit and watched together a documentary film on the project’s activities.

Archbishop Mouneer Hanna, Archbishop of Province of Alexandria, said to the Episcopal/ Anglican Church: Egypt is now developing society with all its strength and is working on developing the sectors of industry, trade, agriculture, and local development from building roads, bridges, and new cities.

And he continued: Remember, without building the human being, Egypt will not grow. Therefore, we must develop our minds by focusing on the morals of youth and the love of the homeland, increasing the youth’s belonging to their dear country, Egypt, and participating in building society with their arms

The day began with a visit by the youth of the Alexandria community to the Interfaith Complex in the Old Cairo region together, Muslims and Christians, beginning at Amr Ibn Al-Aas Mosque, then the Church of the Virgin, Qasriyah Al-Rayhan, the Church of the Martyr Abu Sefin, the Hanging Church

The meeting ended with a photo that brought together Archbishop Mouneer Hanna with the project’s youth.

The youth participated in a discussion with Bishop Mouneer about how to develop young minds and the answers came about building oneself by strengthening our arms for work and raising the role of morals in society, not to differentiate between different beliefs because we are the children of one country and with our different strings we play a melody and take to Egypt our country and also coexistence and acceptance of the other because we are all creatures of the God.

The project is being held under the auspices of the Province of Alexandria of the Episcopal/ Anglican Church in Egypt with North Africa and the Horn of Africa, and the Misr El-Kheir Foundation.

The project will include a set of initiatives and events in the governorates of Cairo, Alexandria, Minya, and the cities of Sadat and Menouf.

The project aims to establish strong and real relationships and friendships between young people, develop their capabilities and raise their cultural and civilizational awareness, in addition to the participation of trainees together in implementing practical initiatives that benefit their local communities, with the aim of reaching a degree of integration and quality of work by communicating with government agencies and community organizations that works in the same direction that their initiative is related to.
