Origins
In 1899 Herbert E. Randall of the Canadian Holiness Movement Church began work in the city of Asyut. Revivals broke out in villages and towns nearby. Other missionaries joined him, and the work developed into an independent conference. In 1959 the Canadian denomination and the conference in Egypt united with the Free Methodist Church. Present Ministries
Wesleyan Theological College in Asyut prepares Free Methodist ministers. Student pastors minister in village churches that do not have pastors. About 10,000 children attend vacation Bible school each year in FM churches, where hundreds typically give their lives to Jesus. Several youth camps are held yearly. Each January and February most Free Methodist churches throughout Egypt hold spiritual renewal weeks. Opportunities to support Egypt ministries
