Will Iraq’s Historic Churches Be Restored?
05/25/2021 Iraq (International Christian Concern) – Historic churches in Iraq are battered by the harsh environment and years of conflict. Yet is the continued government negligence that leaves them crumbling, deteriorating, and therefore potentially disqualified for even the UNESCO Tentative List of heritage sites.
Al Aqiser church sits southwest of Baghdad in Ain Tamr. The 1,500-year-old church has been allowed to crumble to bare walls. Under Saddam Hussein the area was converted to a military firing range, while harsh heat and rain and a lack of funds keep locals from being able to protect the ancient church.
