The martyrs of Damascus: being saints in the Middle East today

Описание: What is holiness? Being ‘creative in love and persevering in trials,’ said Pope Francis in his homily on Sunday, 20 October. On the façade of St Peter's stand out the images of the newly canonised saints, an Italian priest and nun with another Canadian nun, and finally eight Franciscan friars together with three Maronite laymen. They are the martyrs of Damascus, a new page of holiness in the history of the Custody of the Holy Land. Among the concelebrants were the Patriarch of Jerusalem and the Patriarch of the Maronite Church.
