Let's keep praying for Syrian people, especially for Christians, because they suffer the most from jihadist rebels. And let's thank God that those rebels failed to seize the whole country. It's indeed a miracle that areas under their inhuman 'control' have shrunk so dramatically!

It is nice to see that there are people the world over praying for peace in Syria.

I've read these letters in an OCP Publication’s book “Collected Writings on Orthodox Christianity: Various Aspects of Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Churches”.
By the way, the book may be quite useful for those who want to become familiar with Oriental Orthodox Christianity, IMO.
