Article summary: 

Pope Shenouda decided to ban election propaganda or conferences inside any churches. Church sources attributed the pope’s decision to the problem that took place between Bishop Marqus, metropolitan of Shubrā, and Najīb Jibrā’īl, the head of the Egyptian Union for Human Rights Organization.

 

On the other hand, the Evangelical Church in Egypt issued a statement yesterday denouncing the call of an American priest to burn the Qur’ān on the anniversary of 9/11.
