The offices have confirmed our request is being honored and the caucus is moving forward. This outcome belongs entirely to you for refusing to be silent about these families. I am still processing that we actually reached this point together.

I have been reading the stories you all are sharing and I am deeply moved by your compassion for these communities. I am currently working on drafting a letter to send these signatures to the offices of our representatives. This momentum belongs entirely to you and your willingness to speak up for those who cannot.

"Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph". Haile Selassie . We must act today while we can, otherwise Christianity in the land of Christ will one day exist only in the history books.

If you want peace, work for justice. Christians in the Middle East are the original of that land. Save their presence lest darkness will overcome the Middle East.

The Middle East is losing entire Christian communities due to hatred, ignorance, and intolerance.
