Lebanese bishop gives Scots harrowing account of ongoing religious persecution

Maronite Archbishop Elias Nassar of Saida in Lebanon was speaking at an Aid to the Church in Need event at Our Lady of Good Aid Cathedral in Motherwell last Thursday when he said it had become all too ‘convenient for Europe to ignore and forget about Christian persecution in my region.’
