WASHINGTON, DC – “The continued conflict with Iran has occasioned more victims.  On behalf of all the faithful of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA, I express heartfelt condolences to the families whose loved ones have been killed or are missing in action—most recently in Jordan.  At the same time I urge all men and women of good will to pray for peace among nations and a quick resolution to the current dispute.  May there be no more innocent victims on either side so that all peoples might enjoy security and tranquility.”
