Iraq

Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Fr John Boyle has this post from Iraq concerning the appalling massacre, a word of caution though, there are some graphic descriptions and images. Godzdogz also has a blog post up, Remember... we have Family in Iraq! which I would also urge you to read if you haven't already. ACN has been reporting the persecutions too, see here , here, and here.


As well as our prayers, there is practical support we can offer. ACN also do very good Christmas cards, so if you haven't already bought yours, have a look at the online Aid To The Church In Need shop. You can also find gifts, like this icon and rosary made in the Holy Land.

I'm glad you have linked to Fr Boyle's blog. I read it yesterday and would defy anyone to read it dry-eyed. The personal witness by the letter writer really brought home the tragedy which has been given so little publicity here.
