"The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. George Carey, has complained to the government of Sudan about restrictions on the celebration of Easter in the capital Khartoum. In a letter to the Sudanese Foreign Minister, Dr. Mustafa Ismail, the text of which has been released today (April 23 [2001]), Archbishop Carey said that he was forced to `the reluctant conclusion that Christians in Khartoum experienced discrimination, harassment and obstruction in their desire to celebrate Easter together peacefully and in public'. The events referred to by the Archbishop followed the Governor of Khartoum's last-minute withdrawal of permission for Christians to gather at a site in the centre of Khartoum, Green Square, for meetings with the visiting German pastor, Reinhard Bonnke."
"The Rt. Rev. Daniel M. Zindo, the Anglican Bishop of Yambio, has been elected the new Chairman of the New Sudan Council of Churches. He replaces the Rt. Rev. Paride Taban. The Bishop was elected on 18 March [1994] during the fourth Annual General Assembly of the Council in Kenya. The assembly which brings together churches in southern Sudan, also called on all the parties in the country to make and honour the ceasefire in order to stop the violence against civilians and to allow aid to be delivered". Text of entire article.
"Following his visit to Sudan last December [1993], the Archbishop of Canterbury launched an appeal to help those affected by the civil war. So far a total of 300,000 [pounds sterling] has been raised for the appeal .... This particular appeal is now closed."
"A Sudanese Air Force Antonov plane on 5 March [1998] flew four sorties over the rebel-held town of Yei in the Western Equatorial region of southern Sudan, dropping 13 bombs. Five of the bombs hit the town's hospital complex, killing a medical assistant and 10 patients." Other hospitals have also been attacked. "The Rt. Rev. Joseph Marona, the interim chairman of the New Sudan Council of Churches (NSCC) and the Bishop of Maridi Diocese in Southern Sudan, has described the Yei incident as horrible and inhuman". "The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev. George Carey wrote a letter on 2 April [1998] to the Sudanese Ambassador in Britain, expressing his concern about the bombing." Text of letter included. "Meanwhile, a Word Food Programme spokeswoman, Christine Bethnaume, said in Geneva that 350,000 people in southern Sudan now face starvation."
