This
is the heart felt appeal that resonates in each one of us. It is cried out to
us by the Christians living in the Middle East and urges us not to remain
passive in front of such a drama that is being perpetuated before our very eyes.
“Don’t
forget us!” How can we ignore this cry! As Christians and as men and women of
this planet, we cannot remain passive in front of such situations of conflict
that people live in many parts of the world.
For
this reason we join Pope Francis’ heartfelt prayer for peace, especially in the
land of Jesus. May every endeavour be made in order not to use weapons and to avoid
so many innocent deaths.
We
want to assure our Christian sisters and brothers, and all other people
belonging to different faiths, that we won’t forget them. We take a daily
commitment to offer our day to day life and to pray to the Almighty so that
violence might stop. That dialogue
between the concerned parties might open up and that we might have the “courage
of peace.”
