Copts in Minya celebrated the opening of Prince Tadros church after it was renewed by the armed forces. The Church was burned at the hands of supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood following the dispersal of Rabaa Adawia and Nahda sit-ins.
Prince Tadros lived in Assiut and was martyred on the name of Christ after he saved two children from being offered as human offerings to a beast by killing that beast. The pagans lost their mind and tortured him to death.
