4) Day of prayer for persecuted Christians in Iraq
Church leaders in Iraq have selected this coming Sunday August 9 as a day of prayer for an end to the violent persecution that threatens to extinguish the ancient Iraqi Christian community. The Right Rev Declan Lang, Bishop of Clifton and Chairman of the International Affairs Dept of Catholic Bishops' conference of England and Wales is calling for UK Catholics to make a donation to Aid to the Church in Need, which is offering emergency and pastoral support to the Christians of Mosul. 

That's all folks,
