    Christmas Celebrated In Mosul After Islamic State Is Driven Out Of Area

    Christmas Celebrated In Mosul After Islamic State Is Driven Out Of Area


    Hymns and cries of joy flooded Saint Paul’s Church in east Mosul today as Muslims and Christians joined together for Mass

    The city of Mosul is celebrating its first post Islamic state Christmas.

    The war torn area was liberated from ISIS earlier this year, allowing many Iraqi Christians to peacefully celebrate the holiday for the first time in years.

    Thousands of Christians have fled the area since 2014, when ISIS took hold of Mosul.
    On Christmas Eve, dozens of families gathered in Saint Paul’s Church praying for peace and stability.



    Hymns filled a church in Iraq’s second city Mosul on Sunday as worshippers celebrated Christmas for the first time in four years after the end of jihadist rule.

    During the jubilant gathering, a speaker said, the celebration was not only for the birth of Jesus, but also for the birth of their country.

    “ISIS was destructive and was using this place as one of their prisons,” said Uday Al-Adamy, a local Christian man. “As you can see this church is destroyed, but some people from this city volunteered themselves to rebuild the church, because of its importance as a message of peace for the entire world. The church bells are back again in the city.”

    NOW PLEASE SEND THESE REFUGEES HOME!

    Send them back to go reunite with their relatives and rebuild THEIR country.

    The German's rebuilt Germany after WWII ... all that rubble!

    They can too!

    No US taxpayer dollars! No rebuilding other countries.
