In the Iraqi city of Mosul, two historic Catholic churches—destroyed during ISIS’s occupation from 2014 to 2017—have been restored and officially reopened. Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani presided over the reopening of the Church of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception and the Dominican Church of Our Lady of the Hour. The ceremony, marked by the ringing of a restored church bell and the planting of olive trees, offers a powerful sign of healing and hope for Iraq’s Christian community.
