VOICED : Mourning and joy for Egypt's Christians as Pope visits

Pope Francis is visiting Egypt, marking his first trip to the Arab world's most populous nation, where the majority are Muslim. The visit is significant, especially after recent attacks on Egypt's Christian community. Preparations began a month ago, with a choir selected to participate in the ceremony. The visit aims to strengthen dialogue between Christians and Muslims, a dialogue that had been interrupted but is now being revived by Pope Francis. The climax of the visit will be a mass at a Cairo sports stadium.
