Spiritual place, honor Egypt.
I remember going to church on Sundays. We used to call this church "Sacro Cuore". I remember there was a youth club in the basement. I think it was called "il circolo di Sant Antonio". Not sure though.
A cute nice Roman Catholic Chruch with a nice community right down town Cairo.
A church committed to dialogue and encounter between the different social and cultural faces of Cairo, be them from Egypt or the World at large. A HEART FOR THE WORLD
