Join us to hear from the Rev. Christopher Bishop, rector of St. Martin’s Church in Radnor, who has made to trip to Iraq to bring aid to struggling Christian families in Iraq. Fr. Bishop was a film maker in New York before being ordained. His parish and he were called to mission in Iraq at Christmas, 2015, and formed Stand with Iraqi Christians (SWIC) to offer friendship and material aid to Christians in Iraq brutalized and displaced by ISIS. In September 2015 Chris visited Erbil in the north of Iraq for the first time, where many Christians have fled for sanctuary, to deliver aid that his church collected and to shoot a documentary film “Where Is Our Place?”, at one point ending up only five miles from where ISIS was fighting. We will also learn about the work that Anglicans are doing and how St. Thomas’ can help.
