It seems that this does not refer to the Oriental Orthodox Church, only to some obscure Protestant groups... does anyone have more information?

Actually, Eritrea does not recognize the radical forms of organized religions such as: Low-church Protestants, Baha'i followers, and Sufis. But Eritrea does recognize the Eritrean Orthodox Church, Sunni Islam, Catholicism, and the Evangelical Lutheran Church. All other religions have to undergo registration to worship.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner.  God is always coming to you in the Sacrament of the Present Moment. Meet and receive Him there with gratitude in that sacrament
