Older than the UAE itself: Sheikh Shakhbut gave land for the first church on the Corniche in 1968 after hearing Christmas carols, and it moved to this Mushrif compound in the 1980s. Today it hosts more than 50 congregations, from Ethiopian Orthodox to Nepali evangelical, a cross-section of expat Abu Dhabi.
