(Egypt)–Meanwhile, Christians around the world are being asked to pray for a Bible distribution effort in Egypt. Christian Aid Mission reports the Bible Society of Egypt was ready to offer copies of a Bible video series at the Cairo International Book Fair, but permission was revoked at the last minute. The Bible Society’s Ramez Atallah is asking people to pray that the decision will be reversed. Atallah says the Book Fair typically provides an opportunity to spread God’s Word to people who would not otherwise have access to it.
