Christians have sought protection for a church in Madhya Pradesh state after an anonymous letter threatened to blast it if the Dove World Outreach Centre in Florida went ahead with its plan to burn Qur'ans on Sept. 11 to mark the ninth anniversary of terror attacks in the United States. The letter posted on Aug. 31 threatened to blast the Church of North India’s Bethlehem Church situated in Bhopal, the state capital. The church’s pastor Rev Sanjay Solomon told ucanews.com that the letter would hold the church ‘responsible’ if a Qur'an was burned. The church authorities ‘immediately approached’ the police for protection. Archbishop Leo Cornelio of Bhopal said he had already met Muslim leaders in the city soon after media first reported about the Qur’an burning plan early last month. The Archbishop said Christian groups condemn the plan because burning a Holy Book ‘is a serious crime that cannot be pardoned.’ Pray: against such actions that are done in the name of Christ the Prince of Peace.
