GENERAL COMMENTS
Preface by Abuna Arsanius el Baramousy, Coptic Orthodox priest in Amsterdam (who later became bischop).
A few quotes from his preface (tr. MvdB - see files for the Dutch text): ‘The Coptic parish in Amsterdam exists since October 1985 […] the words [of Pope Shenouda] who are not only meaningful to Christians from Egypt, but also could contribute to the faith of Christians in the Netherlands, regardless of their denomination. In this way, the evangelical/missionizing tradition referred to earlier, is being continued. The Coptic Orthodox Church wants to preach the Gospel to everyone. You are very welcome to meet us in our church in Amsterdam.’
