Patriarch's Homilies

For the New Year 2021 from the Patriarchal Cathedral “Maryamiyya” in Damascus

We ask Him for divine mercy and the heavenly kingdom for everyone who left us this past year and stand before His holy glory.

We ask Him to lift the present pandemic from His world and grant His solace and cure the sick and injured.

We pray for the unknown soldiers, the medical staff and front-line workers.
