The Chaldean bishop Mgr. Shlemon Warduni, Auxiliary of the Patriarch of Baghdad, will be in Venice next Saturday, May 3, and will pray in the Basilica of San Marco "for peace in the world and in his battered land." To give the news is the press office of the Patriarchate of Venice: the appointment is at 18.45 in the cathedral. The Eucharist will be celebrated by the auxiliary bishop of Venice, Mgr. Beniamino Pizziol. Mgr. Warduni is accompanied by Don Renato Sacco, who was part of the Franch-Italian delegation of Pax Christi that went to Iraq on last February. "We invite everyone - we read in the pamphlet given out in last days by Pax Christi Venice - to be near the pain and suffering that Iraqi people, and the church, have been living since too long ago, to invoke the gift of peace, to pray for all the victims, remembering especially the Archbishop of Mosul, Paulos Faraj Rahho who was kidnapped and found dead on March 3.” (It was the 13 of March, note by Baghdadhope)
