Spare a thought for our persecuted fellow Christians this Christmas

Many of us are now looking forward to a cosy celebration of Midnight Mass followed by a hearty Christmas dinner so spare a thought for other Christians who are beingpersecuted throughout the world. Some will be thankful that their lives have been spared after their place of worship has beendestroyed while others have paid the ultimate price for their faith. But Christianity is still thedominant world religion. Pray that our leaders will strive harder to keep it that Way this Christmas, in the new year and in years to come.
