"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God." 2 Corinthians 1: 3-4

       With great sorrow we received the news of the martyrdom of the late Reverend Father Yousef Adel Abboudi the parish priest of St. Severius the Great, Baghdad, who was slain for sticking to the faith in the Lord Jesus in performing his priestly duty.

       May the Lord bestow His mercies and add his name to the list of His invitees to His heavenly banquet. May He bring comfort to the heart of his family, and all his relatives and acquaintances.

On behalf of Archbishop Mor C. Eugene Kaplan, the clergy of the Western Archdiocese, we offer our heartfelt condolences to His Eminence Mor Severius Hawa and the clergy of his Archdiocese. May the Lord have mercy upon us by his prayers, Amen.
