A senior bishop in the UK Coptic Orthodox Church has spoken of the need for reconciliation in Egypt in the wake of recent violence.
UK Copts were gathered at Westminster Abbey last night to commemorate the Coptic Feast of Nayrouz and to celebrate the new Coptic Year.
General Bishop, His Grace Bishop Angaelos, spoke about the changing political climate in Egypt and recent challenges in the Middle East.
The removal of Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi has triggered the deaths of Muslim Brotherhood supporters as well as attacks on over a hundred Christian properties, with at least three Christians killed.
