CWN Editor's Note: Auxiliary Bishop William Shomali of the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem participated in a Divine Liturgy for the repose of the souls of the victims of a recent terrorist attack on a Greek Orthodox church in Syria.
Addressing other mourners during the July 4 liturgy at an Orthodox church in Jerusalem, Bishop Shomali, according to the Latin Patriarchate, “emphasized that the blood of martyrs is never shed in vain; rather, it stands as a cry for truth in the face of injustice and a living testimony to the perseverance and steadfast faith of Christians amid tribulation.”
