Pope Francis Calls for Day of Fasting & Prayer for Syria and the Middle East

During his Sunday Angelus message, Pope Francis called upon Catholics everywhere to join him in a day of prayer and fasting for peace in Syria, where civil war has left thousands dead, and the involvement of other powers threatens a still wider war, this coming Saturday, September 7, the vigil of the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God.  The Patriarch of the Maronite Catholic Church and the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch have joined in this effort.  See here.
