them on the model and know if christians are being harmed here and if something happens to them elsewhere they still have their friends and neighbors from the high river it was almost as if the don't want you to worry about me. like i'm going to have a. long habs family sells wooden lumber the main lumber yard is about ten kilometers from so hot. you have spreader has just gone to china to set up new sources of supply. the fuzzy family wants to expand their business. in so hog and in cairo and alexandria as well the family sells wood at small subsidiary shops business is good. egypt's economy grew by four point three percent last year and will have a good trade grew with it. he might even employ some new workers soon. all that matters to him is that the workers are qualified you know much. of course we have muslim employees to one of them has been working for us for twenty five years another fifteen and there's another one who's been with us for more than five years . it's a mix of christians and muslims that have been working together for many years. you . know halves family also supplies the red monastery with wood. which i could only wish. for your father and tony is a prior of the red monastery. father karol us runs the carpentry shop where benches chairs tables shelves windowsills sofas and much more are made. the monastery has a well established commercial business. so even though most of these monks rarely leave the compound they are still oriented toward the outside world. but in this one of the customers come from all over the area to foster care or loss from as yet for example and this is how many local people come to buy a whole bedroom sent off on a chip for the bride of christ and schiller went to visit a kids is a bad one to see who are comes to missouri engineers and the government to work they buy for most of the. that is untrue we saw furniture for wedding dowries as well to muslims and christians on. this than was i heard you don't want to share. information. the monks want to see if the furniture is comfortable. the a poster is a muslim. even a christian institution like the red monastery sees to it that it employs muslims. and a minority demanding acceptance should not practice discrimination themselves. i don't know if we're all treated the same here we're like brothers there's no marginalization in the whole. you know although it seems to contradict their withdrawn and traditional lifestyle the monks of the red monastery are in step with the times. they're even raising ostriches which is a bit of a new trend in egypt. ostrich meat is in demand here because it's low in cholesterol. i don't know. whether you are. on the. record i think. the red monastery is relatively large it's a mid-sized business with olive groves vegetable gardens livestock and a joinery. but above all the red monastery is one of the most important religious centers in southern egypt. behind this store is a genuine treasure. it's the part of a church that dates back to the sixth century and one of the oldest remnants of cup to culture. it's also a masterwork of byzantine architecture. that the lithium because. i love this child very much i can celebrate the most wonderful masses in this church or goodrem of will always when i look up to the icons i'm really in or. for example what i really like is the image of the messiah but it's about him he's raised his arms to grant blessings. give me a good bye like the picture of the gazelles to a longing for water and it reminds me of a longing for god. give me good though then there's this image of mary that placid virgin especially how she holds the baby at her breast. you know. another one i like is this icon of the holy trinity where the trinity is in the name of the father the son and the holy spirit but ultimately there's only one god but not we believe in only one god god is wild. who are look well and finally you know i like john the baptist on the show with wings and he would be nice if people had wings to them but again. thank you erica thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you ok are you actually are you experiencing you yeah we are you anyway oh you. more herb is a bit subdued he doesn't want to be filmed at home at all his muslim neighbors pressured him not to do it they say they're afraid that as a christian he'll present a negative picture of egypt on german television he didn't do that quite the opposite that's why he brought his family album to the café. he wants to show us that he and his family are doing very well in egypt. and she wished we all lived together in loving harmony material wealth is not why we get along no our money is not everything mother and father taught us that money isn't everything and.

when an islamist terrorist attack the center of the coptic church the seat of its papacy . mario can see through the radical strategy. like so many others regardless of their age he's not falling into their trap. or people but there are people who spread rumors to divide us but they won't succeed with the egyptians we're gyptian are one people like almost a lot of what. we are one people is a leading tenet of the coptic orthodox church. but not only the cops and here to that most muslim egyptians believe the same thing. that's why they view the attack in december two thousand and sixteen which was apparently aimed at the coptic pope as an act of terror against all egyptians. in that incident a suicide bomber forced his way into st peter's church and killed twenty eight people. there horrible pictures that really have sent me terrible images. that are not because the victims were christians no it's just because it's typical to their of the with solving. the bomb had been coated with small bits of metal. or the. traces left by the deadly shrapnel can be seen in the columns of the church they remain as a grim reminder. the terrorist detonated the bomb on the right side of the church where the women sit. now who lost both her daughters in the attack. friends and family know visit the childless couple regularly to celebrate friendship and the good times they had with their daughters. the living room resembles a memorial shrine more than a place to sit and chat. february and marina were eighteen and twenty one when they were killed in the attack on december eleventh two thousand and sixteen. when a thought in the eyes and getting what had a call with was saying i want to get there as fast as i could to see the girls if they were still alive. i went into st peter's church it was a terrible sight it was the whole church was full of rubble diskette all the pews were smashed there was blood everywhere everywhere and from about as if i were in a butcher's yard. hearts of bodies everywhere for the six days with me i couldn't find the movie but i think they told me to go to the hospitals as the british. so i went to look for my daughters as doris sheaffer hospital and i couldn't find them for i was about to give up hope of ever finding them and had to get torn to pieces here and that was that why i couldn't find them . it had finally someone told me to go to this room. they look at sea and one more issue for there were refrigerators and i had never seen anything like it forthwith draw ours was from the library i told the man to open the bottom one that you've got so he did. he uncovered her face it was her. little for a brownie and then i said open the upper drawer so they did and i found her older sister then i found it. i mean. they hadn't done anything to him i'm sure they didn't harm him. what should i say. it's a path full of pain and sorrow a road of thorns. had life without our daughters has no heat no point. a memorial plaque in the church courtyard various pictures of the attack victims. back in so hug mohammed got something to celebrate his muslim friend mahmoud is getting married. christians are of course invited to attend just as they are to many other muslim weddings in egypt. the proud bridegroom greets each guest personally and with several hundred guests the welcome could take some time. a few particularly close friends are invited to join him for a snapshot. i . i. i i i. i more hope says that parties like this one are the best evidence that egyptians won't let the islamists divide them and they haven't stripped the country of its lust for life either. the joy in partying dancing and laughing are typically egyptian. something else the self-proclaimed guardians of virtue abhor. the islamists influence has fallen sharply the government has come down hard on the radicals. that's been welcomed by christians like. it's why the copts see the government as an important ally. this is good it's good that women haven't first and foremost security is what is important to egypt and security is the most important thing i guess so well thank god we are safe again since the army and police have taken control of them and gone has protected the country from the unrest after the revolution. there's another important reason more have doesn't back down in the face of pressure from the islamists who would prefer to see all christians leave egypt. let me save us you can't leave so hard so hard with it's friendly and good people. even if i went all over the world i would always return to egypt. so our people are friendly and good they don't distinguish between muslims and christians. unlike in iraq or syria people in the country on the nile refuse to allow themselves to be split along religious lines the radicals strategy is failing. the fast pace of life in the digital shift has the lowdown on the web showing new developments and providing useful information the wittiest finds and
