Egypt: spiritually hungry

The sixth annual OneThing festival in Wadi el Natroun took place from 1–3 October with around 7,000 people attending each day.

The Christian youth festival was so packed that people were ‘squashed in the aisles’, but that did not deter the spiritually hungry crowd!

One of the main speakers, the Revd Sameh Maurice, said that the packed and enthusiastic crowd offered ‘hope that there are youth who want to continue lifting the banner of God's love’, adding, ‘There are people who really seek God and God will reveal himself to those who seek him diligently with all their hearts’.
