In the village of Kafr El Nasara, MCC supports literacy education through BLESS, a Coptic Orthodox organization that provides literacy classes in different parts of Egypt. Hanan Abanoub, a student in the literacy classes, reads with her children Abu Noub Sabour, 13, Girgis Sabour, 8, and Niveen Sabour, 7.
