Give to Project Jonah

Fr. Ben was able to meet Abouna Raphael in Zawaida – the priest who runs the project and has big plans. We are so blessed to be able to help our brethren in Egypt – a place blessed by the Holy Family’s presence. 4/15/25 Your overwhelming support of the woodworking project there for Fr. Ben’s 60th birthday last year has born fruit. We were able to help them purchase the machine and we previously shared pics of its installation. They now have 5 employees in the Zawaida district, in the heart of Alexandria, which is one of the poorest places in Alexandria. In this slum with a Muslim majority, the Copts represent only 5% of the population! It is such a blessing to be able to help our brethren maintain their dignity amidst much persecution, all thanks to YOU! 4/16/24
