Good News From The Middle East

An Egyptian website called ahramonline.beta reported on Friday that "thousands of Muslims showed up at Coptic Christmas eve mass services in churches around the country and at candle light vigils held outside."  The Coptic Christians celebrated Christmas on Friday.  The Muslims were there to act as human shields to prevent another attack on the Coptic Christians by extremist Muslims. 

The article states:

"In the days following the brutal attack on Saints Church in Alexandria, which left 21 dead on New Year' eve, solidarity between Muslims and Copts has seen an unprecedented peak. Millions of Egyptians changed their Facebook profile pictures to the image of a cross within a crescent - the symbol of an "Egypt for All". Around the city, banners went up calling for unity, and depicting mosques and churches, crosses and crescents, together as one."

Thank God for the courage of the Muslims who showed up at the Christian services.  Their courage and willingness to protect their fellow Egyptians regardless of religion is encouraging.
