Chaldean Kidnapped Priest Released

Kaldu.org - Sep 11, 2006

Less than 2 hours ago, kidnapped Chaldean Catholic priest, Father Saad Serop was released in Baghdad.  We still don’t know his physical condition and whether he was harmed or not but for now we are celebrating this miracle that surely came by the intercession of the Blessed Mother.

Father Saad was kidnapped August 15 right after celebrating Holy Mass of the feast of the Assumption of the Holy Mother of God in his church (St. Jacob of Nisibin Chaldean Catholic Church) in the Dora area of Baghdad.

Thank you all for your prayers for the intercession of the Queen of Heaven.

We are asked to keep our celebration very LOW KEY for the continued safety of Father Saad and the other priests in Iraq.
