First news of the demolition on 26 October 2015. This is the article that caused a Coptic outcry with the sad news of the destruction of the Coptic cultural, social and spiritual birthplace in Australia.
This is the news that broke our hearts and precipitated the formation of Australian Coptic Heritage & Community Services; to save our Church, save our heritage and stop the demolition.
