Syria

As violence escalates in Syria, so too does the humanitarian crisis. As Syria's economic and social structures continue to destruct, refugees are a major concern for humanitarians addressing the consequences of the conflict. The United States has led in humanitarian response yet assistance barely begins to scratch the surface of needs.

Throughout the region, governments are overwhelmed. Neighboring populations of Lebanon, Turkey and Jordan feel financial pressure to fund the camps and social pressure in accommodating refugee populations within their borders. Hunger, lack of physical shelters, medical needs and psychological damage are widespread concerns. As humanitarians continue to address the needs of refugees, we hope that the Syrians will soon be able to return to a stable life in Syria.

The Bible is the written record of God’s Revelation.

The Bible Is the Inspired Word of God

The Church teaches that:

• God is the author of the Bible,

• the Holy Spirit inspired the writers of the sacred books, and

• the Sacred Scriptures teach the Truth.

• We need the Holy Spirit to enlighten our minds to understand and apply his holy word to our lives.

• The bible is not a religion textbook that we study from as if we were learning world history, geography, or languages. The Bible is a living book. For it to remain so, we must call on Christ, through the Holy Spirit, to open our minds to its Good News.
