In the heart of Minya, Egypt, a Coptic family stood resolute against the wave of persecution that swept through their community in early 2025. Known for their unwavering faith, the family regularly attended church and played active roles in their community's spiritual life. However, their faith was put to the ultimate test when tragedy struck. On January 15, 2025, an extremist attack targeted their local church. In the face of danger, the family clung to their belief in Jesus, drawing strength from their shared devotion.
