GENERAL COMMENTS
In the preface, Father Bishoy Kamel writes that the booklet is targeted towards two groups: young Dutch Egyptians who want to rediscover and know more about their Church and its tradition, and local Dutch and Belgian population, who, according to the priest, have shown interest in the Coptic Church in the recent times.
