“I cried when I saw the destruction of our church” Mgr. Al-Nemeh

More than 200 churches and parish buildings have been damaged or destroyed in Syria. The revival of Church life is one way of reassuring the faithful and of encouraging them to rebuild their lives. “As the shepherd of the Syriac Orthodox Community in Homs it was very painful to see the destruction of our church,” says the Archbishop Selvanos Boutros Al-Nemeh. #HelpSyria
