Pray for the Church in Baghdad

You may have heard that there was an attack on Catholics in Baghdad on Sunday during Mass. Many were killed and many were wounded.  Fatalities reportedly include three priests.  This is an example of the reality that martyrdom still occurs.  Martyrdom is not simply something that once happened in early Christianity in the Coliseum - it still happens even today.  Let us pray for those who perished, those who survived and for the repentance of those who inflicted the harm.  Read the story here.
