Seminar on Public Issues

A group of men and women from all over the world gathered in the St. Peter's Educational Center to hold the Seminar on Public Issues. Throughout the day, different speakers addressed the issues that Chaldeans are facing all around the world today. One issue they focused on was that we are losing our language and forgetting our heritage. Through the different lectures, the audience gained a better understanding of how to face these issues and not submissively allow ourselves to fade away.
