We led worship for the two morning services today -- wonderful time! This is the most ethnically diverse congregation I've ever had the privilege of helping lead in worship. There are people here from all over the world, literally. There are a few Egyptians, but the large majority are expatriates from everywhere at a large number of Sub-Saharan Africans. A lot from Sudan, and refugees from Darfur and elsewhere.
The expats. are from all over. Maadi is the happening English speaking church in Cairo, so a big number of the English speakers come here, including a lot of Catholics. There are over 50 denominations represented. A lot come from the UK and the US. But I've met people from Korea, China, Australia, Peru, Venezuela, Holland, South Africa, Eritrea, India, Greece and Canada. It's truly every tribe and tongue. It's exciting. It's a preview.
