  The BBC is saying at least 21 dead, which is the same scale as Bishop Suriel's blog.
  
  May the Lord have mercy on their souls and repose them in a place of rest.
  
  For those who remain and mourn may the Lord have mercy and comfort them.
  
  Let us all pray together as we are, and then see later what we can do practically, if there is need. When the names of those who have been martyred are known please post them here so that we can pray for each one by his or her name.
  
  Father Peter

  His Grace will be praying a mass at my parish tomorrow; he has been a campaigner for the rights of people in Egypt for a long time and this latest incident will upset him greatly.
  
  God bless,
