Egyptian Opportunities

Egypt boasts some of the most amazing historical sites on earth. People flock to the Pyramids, seeking to learn about the rich history of the Pharaoh's. Yet millions of children in Egypt are still waiting to hear about the love of Jesus Christ.

David Overstreet is currently traveling in this amazing country, serving with EGM. As he speaks at trainings for children’s workers and at children's camp he made the following observation:
John writes in his third letter verse four, "I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth."
While it is fun watching the children playing in the streets, seemingly not caring about the dirt, rubble and sand, it is sad knowing that most of them don't know that God loves them. I am grateful that the Egyptian EGM staff and many children's workers here do care and are commited to seeing the children in Egypt be transformed. This is their greatest joy, seeing this next generation know the truth and know Jesus.
