There seems no safe haven for Christians in Iraq. While it is true that there is no safe haven for any true believer except heaven still we are to pray for the suffering Church. There is great suffering in Iraq. (See the latest in Church News)

Prayers for all of the Christians there, and most particularly our brethren of the Chaldean, Assyrian, Ancient, Syriac, and Armenian Churches.

I add my prayers for the deliverance of our Christian brothers and sisters in Iraq, and throughout the Holy Land.

Lord of the Powers be with us, for in times of distress we have no other help but You.
Lord of the Powers, have mercy on refugees everywhere.
