Churches of EgyptTradition states that St. Mark the Evangelist brought Christianity to Egypt.
The Holy Family sojourned in Egypt.
Some even say there were Arabic Christians present on the day of Pentecost.

Pentecost 2010My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, at Pentecost, the Church received the Holy Spirit. This was in fulfilment of Jesus' promise to his disciples "wait until you receive power from on high" Acts 1:8. With receiving the Holy Spirit the disciples received a power to share the Good News within Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and to the rest of the world. The Holy Spirit still empowers the church today to advance Christ's mission. Jesus Christ and his disciples showed us how we can share the Good News with the people around us. My Name is Today...
Today I need to eat, today I need to play, today I need care, today I need love. Give me hope today for a brighter tomorrow. ______________________________
