    Huma, a 15-year-old #Pakistani girl, who was abducted in October 2019 and forced to convert to #Islam to marry, is now pregnant as a result of rape. “The court continues to delay #justice, because she is a Christian girl,” said the family’s lawyer. bit.ly/32q3HqK

    Yesterday Venice became red in tribute to the martyrs of religious persecution. Pope Francis expressed his hope that such events would “attract the attention to the grave problem of discrimination Christians face in so many parts of the world” bit.ly/2BpbTcM

    “The Church in #Syria is shocked by the catastrophe. We are worried about the Melkite Catholic Archbishop of #Aleppo, whose building collapsed and is now in hospital but recovering. We ask all benefactors for #prayers.” Regina Lynch, director of projects. bit.ly/3wWnKuO?utm_co…

    May this #Christmas bring hope and peace to the #Christians in #Iraq. May God’s words to his people, “Do not fear, I will be with you”, bring them consolation in their still difficult situation. May the Prince of Peace bring peace to their lives!

    The situation in #Gaza's Holy Family #Catholic parish is very bad." For 3 months, no aid convoys reached them, forcing rationing. 500+ souls, including people with disabilities, are sheltering there. 'Nobody is talking about rebuilding.'

    Father George Maamary is the parish priest in the Syrian village of Al-Husn, near the fortress of Krak des Chevaliers. The church was destroyed by jihadists. "We need help to be able to return to our village, so that we can keep building the Gospel in this millenary land".

    This baby was saved from death in #Iraq and adopted by a #Christian family. Its mother was raped by ISIS militants and left pregnant. The elders of her tribe wanted to kill the baby but she was put in touch with the local #Church, and got help to save him bit.ly/2DLZ8uX
