Al-Azhar Grand Imam, Prof. Ahmad At-Tayyeb, received the international lecturer Cassie Carstens, founder of the “The World Needs a Father” initiative, accompanied by a delegation from the Egyptian Family House (EFH), headed by Bishop Jeremiah, EFH Secretary General, and Dr. Muhammad Abdel Ati, EFH General Coordinator.

The Grand Imam praised the EFH efforts and its sponsorship of many important activities and initiatives in Egypt. He expressed his pleasure that the international lecturer, Cassie Carstens, will train Islamic preachers and Christian priests in the proper upbringing of children, which contributes to bringing the people of the same nation closer and working to raise generations capable of living together in peaceful coexistence.

His Eminence added that Mr. Carstens and the EFH have the responsibility to train preachers and priests, and this should be the first step on the road to saving families from the evil schemes that seek to destroy them, asking them to apply what they have learned in practice to achieve the desired goals. Meanwhile, Mr. Carstens, for his part, expressed his hope that the training program he provided for preachers and priests help them create a healthy environment for children, and provide them with motivational skills to encourage them to be good, and help their communities to develop and live in peace.
