Episode Synopsis

There is a Christian community on the outskirts of Cairo, up in the mountains, that is built into a huge cave.  The people are called the "Garbage People" by the general population of Cairo because they scratch out a living collecting garbage by hand and sorting it into recyclables.  We consider the Gospel of Mark - written by the man who founded the church that became the Coptic Christian Church in Egypt.  We consider persecution - faced by the Garbage People - and we consider the need to be giving, faithful people.
