Emmanuel III Delly.jpgAs a way of showing solidarity with our Christian brothers and sisters in Iraq who faced such horrible circumstances because of their faith Jesus Christ, I am extendiing an invitation to all of us: writing letter(s) of fraternal solidarity with our brothers and sisters through the Chaldean Catholic Patriarch, His Beatitude, Patriarch Emmanuel III Delly. He's the head of the Conference of Catholic Bishops in Iraq.

An initiative of solidarity is proposed by members of Communion and Liberation

Our many friends in the lay Catholic movement, Communion and Liberation have also moved by the plight of Iraqi Christians has organized a gesture of solidarity with the Iraqi Christians in the form of a letter campaign. One of our friends spoke with the Apostolic Nuncio (the Pope's ambassador) at the UN, Archbishop Francis Assisi Chullikatt who said he'd be very happy for our initiative and offered his diplomatic pouch (direct mail) to reach the Nunciature in Iraq.

So, if you are inclined to write an email in solidarity, you may send it to tonuncio@gmail.com and the email will be printed and hand-delivered to Archbishop Chullikatt on Tuesday, November 16.

Messages ought to be addressed to His Beatitude, Patriarch Emmanuel III Delly, Patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans.
