Ancient Christian Churches of Egypt
|
|
|
Before Egypt became an Islamic state, it was a mostly Christian country with an ancient Christian heritage. It was a land where Jesus and his family were known to have traveled, and where early Apostles came to spread his word, particularly at first in Alexandria. Most of the ancient Christian churches of Egypt, contrary to what many travelers may believe, are not located in Old, or Coptic Cairo. In reality, most of the ancient Christian churches, of which only a very few recently discovered examples predate the 4th century, are located in monasteries and smaller cities throughout Egypt, though in some areas there are concentrations not to be found elsewhere. Many of these churches are built on sacred ground where it is believed that the baby Jesus and his family made stops in their journey through Egypt.

The Coptic Network
|
|
|
For two thousand years, the Coptic Orthodox Church of Egypt has remained a loving bride and a faithful witness for Christ. Her sons and daughters pride themselves on being the unyielding defendants of the Christian faith. The Nicene Creed, which is recited in all churches throughout the world, has been authored by one of her favorite sons, St. Athanasius, the Pope of Alexandria in 325 A.D. This status is well deserved, since Egypt was the refuge that the Holy Family sought in its flight from Judea [Matthew 2:12-23]. Today, in the midst of cyberspace stands an altar, and amid the turbulent and roaring tide of the computer age sails an ark; it is called Copt-Net. Copt-Net was chartered on August 22, 1992.
