聖墓堂戶口遭凍結
聖墓堂銀行戶口因水費爭執遭凍結
過去數十年來, 耶路撒冷各位任市政府均豁免聖墓堂繳納水費,
這幾年起, 新的水務公司, 要求支付過去15年的有關費用,
累積達港幣兩千萬元.
兩個星期前, 聖墓堂的銀行戶口被凍結,
影響教會不能支付各項費用及員工薪金等.
管理人員計劃把聖墓堂關閉, 以表示抗議.
因聖墓堂每年吸引一百萬人參觀, 此事引起以色列旅遊局的關注,
並願意居中調解.

埃及基督徒要選出新領袖
擔任埃及一千二百萬科普特正教基督徒領袖
Pope Shenouda III 上星期六 (17/3) 去世, 他終年88 歲, 在位長達 40 年.
教會議會將從其110 位成員中, 選出三位候選人, 交付一個傳統而特別的方法 : 由一位蒙眼的小孩, 以抽籤方法, 決定新的領袖人選.
新的教宗不單而面對埃及的政治巨變, 也要尋找教會的未來路向. 埃及基督徒佔人口十分之一, 教會長期受著逼害和歧視, 人民革命以後, 情況仍沒有改善.
縱使教內有聲音要求新任教宗要更多站出來發聲表達意見, 卻不贊成對拒. 教內比較多數的人, 同意前任的溫和路線.
