Egypt is one of the places where Islam predominates and Christians are more tolerated. Apart from very small communities of Catholics and Protestants, there is a considerable community of Coptic Christians surviving through 13 centuries of islamic ruleNevertheless, many have lost everything — their homes, their possessions and sometimes even their loved ones — because they chose to follow Christ. Among them is Domiana, a woman who faced persecution in Egypt. Today, we share her story and invite you to consider standing with persecuted Christians like her. This is just one example of many similar cases.
