Vigil for Persecuted Christians at Quinnipiac

Hvizdak --the ZinnsHere is a photo essay for Persecuted Christians at Quinnipiac University that happened last evening (17 September 2014).

A friend sung Psalm 129 in Gregorian notation as the candles were lit; other liturgical pieces were sungĀ in Greek, Arabic, and Aramaic chants. Likewise, the Gospel (“Blessed are the peacemakers…”) was sung and proclaimed in the various languages. Dominican Father Jordan Lenaghan, Catholic Chaplain, organized Christians in prayer from various Churches with the presence of the University Rabbi and other officials, for our brothers and sisters facing persecution in the Middle East. About 100 people attended. A large turn-out of students and concerned Christians attended.
