Developments: 2. In late July 2026, Pope Tawadros II delivered his weekly address at the St Mark Coptic Academy in the Monastery of St Anba Bishoy, Wadi El Natroun. The sermon, part of his “Spiritual Laws for Life” series, focused on the “Law of Uprightness,” urging humility and warning against extremism. The event also hosted clergy from Gulf‑region churches, highlighting ongoing dialogue between the Coptic Orthodox Church and Christian communities in the Gulf. A week later, the Pope visited New Alamein City, where he met housing minister Randa Al‑Manshawi and praised the development as a model of smart, sustainable urban growth. During the visit he again delivered his weekly sermon, this time presenting the “law of being a true witness for Christ,” linking spiritual renewal to the nation’s broader renaissance. Both snapshots illustrate the Pope’s dual role in promoting spiritual teachings and engaging with Egypt’s national development projects. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-05: Pope Tawadros II hails New Alamein City as model of Egypt’s urban growth Pope Tawadros II praised New Alamein City as a model of Egypt’s urban development and delivered a sermon on the “law of being a true witness for Christ,” referencing Acts 1:8. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/pope-tawadros-ii-hails-new-alamein-city-as-model-of-egypts-urban-growth ### 2026-07-29: Coptic Pope Tawadros II presents “Law of Uprightness” at Wadi El Natroun monastery Pope Tawadros II presented the “Law of Uprightness” at a monastery in Egypt and met Gulf clergy, stressing humility, prayer and community while inaugurating a church for 49 martyr saints. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/coptic-pope-tawadros-ii-presents-law-of-uprightness-at-wadi-el-natroun-monastery --- Cite as: Pope Tawadros II activities in Egypt.
