CORDI JESU - Catholic Church CAIRO The building of this Church was founded by St. Daniel Comboni himself as a place of training and acclimatization for missionaries on the way to Sudan. Still today Cordi Jesu remains as a precious memory of the seed planted by St. Daniel Comboni which sprang into a living church. This community is where the Delegation Superior of the Comboni Missionaries in Egypt resides. Its members minister to the Christians living in the area, support educational programs for children in some of the most destitute areas of Cairo, welcome several Christian groups, promote missionary awareness in the local church, especially amongst the youth. Some of them are trained to embrace the religious life with the Comboni Missionaries.
