Abba Kirolous: Police refuses to rebuild St. Antony church in Nag Hammadi!
Abba Kirolous, bishop of Nag Hammadi, said that police refuses to rebuilt the church of St. Antony and St. Mary in Abu Shousha village, Nag Hamadi, which serves about 6.000 families of the surrounding villages and was burnt in 2005.
 
He added that they have got the due official permits to rebuilt the church, but police doesn't allow them to rebuilt it claiming it may cause a sectarian strife, despite the good relationships between Muslims and Christians of the village!
