Fiesta de la Asunción de María

HISTORIAS

16 de agosto de 2016

HACE EXACTAMENTE DOS AÑOS – IRAK 15.August 2014 –
Esta imagen fue tomada en Erbil por el personal de ACN, 9 días después de que IS hubiera tomado la Llanura de Nínive y miles y miles de personas se convirtieran en desplazados.
«Fue increíble y emocionante ver tanta devoción, tanto amor a la Virgen en esta situación tan difícil y desesperada.La plaza estaba llena de gente rezando y cantando a la Virgen.
Los primeros obispos y predicadores de la Iglesia de Oriente predicaron la Asunción de la Virgen María fervientemente. En el Concilio de Calcedonia del siglo V, en Turquía, el Patriarca de Jerusalén declaró audazmente que María fue llevada en cuerpo y alma al cielo. Pude ver en Erbil la inmenso devoción de nuestros hermanos y hermanas iraquíes a la Virgen, especialmente en la fiesta de la Asunción de María. Pidámosle a ella que los proteja y los ayude.»
