There are no LDS missionaries in Egypt.

Sometimes there are one are two senior couples in a place like that doing something not directly connected to missionary work, but I haven't heard of anyone being in Egypt. The only Muslim country I know that missionaries are in is Jordan, and again, just couples. They were at one time going to send young men to proselyte to the Christians there, but I don't think they got permission to. They have a pretty vibrant branch in Amman.

I don't think there is any place in the world where there is a lot of LDS missionaries. Utah and Idaho might be an exception. The LDS church tends to exaggerate its own importance.

Dear Elder Knucklehead

You have been called to serve in the Egypt Alexandria Mission of the Coptic COJCOLDS.

You will preach the gospel in the Reformed Egyptian language.

You will report to the MTC in Provo etc. etc. etc.

Blah blah blah.....

Just thinking aloud folks....

:-)

There are none

Egypt is a Muslim country which does not allow Christian proselytism. There is a small branch in Cairo for Mormon expatirate living there. Here's all the info about the LDS church in Egypt from cumorah.com, which isn't much.
