Dear friends,

One of my biggest concerns these days is for the Christians in Iraq. I am very concerned that they are in grave danger. All of the Christians in the Middle East are vulnerable, and I think that the Iraqi Christians are probably at the greatest risk.

I want to share this web site:

http://christiansofiraq.com/index.html


I do not know if any one has already seen this web site, or if it has been posted here before.

It posts and archives articles on Christians in the Middle East, and links to organizations that support Iraqi Christians.

Our fellow Christians in the Middle East need our prayers and support.

Please let your elected officials know that Iraqi Christians need to be protected.

I was under the impression that there was an exodus of some Christians in Iraq, as the conflict between the Sunni and Shi'a becomes polarized. It would be very dangerous for the Christians there if Iran is successful at bringing about an Islamic state in Iraq.
