Emphasis was placed on the vital role of the clergy in steadfastly serving the faithful, strengthening their trust in God’s mercy, and relying on Him.
The clergy were encouraged to stand by their communities, offering consolation and hope, while also serving as examples and role models in demonstrating responsibility, prudence, solidarity, and collective effort to preserve the Church’s testimony and unity.
Special emphasis was placed on intensifying prayers and supplications to the Christ Child, particularly during the upcoming festive season, to safeguard peace and unity in this land of peace—a blessing for all the people of Syria.
