This coming Sunday is a very special day as well as we will be welcoming Pastor Samuel Adel, pastor of El Sharabia Presbyterian Church in Cairo, Egypt. We are blessed to be in a "sister congregation" relationship with El Sharabia, along with the Christian Arabic Church. Last spring, a group of us from Third and CAC were able to travel to Cairo to spend a week with Pastor Samuel and his congregation. It was a delightful visit and we are so thankful to be able to welcome Pastor Samuel, his wife Phoebe, and several other Egyptian friends to Third this weekend.

This Sunday we’ll be hearing from Pastor Fakhri Yacoub, pastor of the Christian Arabic Church. Fakhri will be speaking about the current crisis in the Holy Land, and how we as Christians can faithfully pray for what is happening.
