Further update on the health of His Eminence Metropolitan Bakhomios of Boheira and Pentapolis by His Grace Bishop Angaelos, General Bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Church in the United Kingdom
24 September 2014
His Eminence Metropolitan Bakhomios of Boheira and Pentapolis, and former Locum Tenens of the Coptic Orthodox Church, has been moved to another hospital in London for rehabilitation and physiotherapy as a result of his improved health condition.
His Holiness Pope Tawadros II 118th Pope of Alexandria and Patriarch on the holy Apostolic See of Saint Mark has been in contact with Metropolitan Bakhomios on numerous occasions by telephone and has assumed responsibility for his arrangements and all medical expenses. A number of bishops from Egypt and other countries have visited His Eminence, and HG Bishop Biemen of Quos and Naqada will continue to accompany him throughout the course of his treatment.
We pray for his speedy recovery, that he may return to his diocese, his flock, and to the whole Church at the earliest possible time.
Public visits are still currently not permitted on medical advice.
