Dear Brother Priests, Deacons and Subdeacons, Consecrated Men and Women, Lay Faithful,

Please join me in a day of prayer and fasting for the good people in harm’s way in the Middle East.

Please forward the attached letter on your social media platforms, and may Our Lady of Peace intercede for us.
