Dear friends,
Since returning from Iraq we have been organizing footage (I shot quite a bit for a two week period), conducting additional interviews in the States and embarking on the editing process. I have to say I love looking at the images and people, as I miss Erbil and the friends I made there very much. I will return as soon as I am able and when we have gathered more resources to share with them.
Beginning this Tuesday (November 3, 2015) we will begin posting small pieces of what will eventually be a 25-30 minute film. Each section will provide just a taste of the vivid and inspiring people and culture of the Christians now living as displaced persons in Erbil. They are creating communities and finding unexpected ways of living together in faith and mutual understanding, even as the world in which they must thrive burns around them in war.
I hope you continue to walk this journey with us, and our sisters and brothers in Iraq. And, as importantly, please let them hear your voices and know your thoughts! We are all in this together.
Grace and peace,
Fr. Chris
