''I was really worried about this. With great sadness, I have now confirmed that several of my relatives (including Viola and Yara pictured here) were killed at Saint Porphyrius Orthodox Church in Gaza, where they had been sheltering, when part of the complex was destroyed as the result of an Israeli airstrike. Give rest, O Lord, to their souls, and may their memories be eternal.
The Palestinian Christian community has endured so much. Our family is hurting badly. May God watch over all Christians in Gaza and all Israelis and Palestinians who are suffering, whatever their religion or creed.''

Pope Francis at the end of his general audience on Wednesday morning announced another day of prayer and fasting for an end to the Israel-Hamas war.
''I have decided to call for a day of fasting and prayer on Friday, Oct. 27'' the pope said.

The vigil will take place at 6 p.m. in St. Peter Square, where the faithful will join the pope to participate in ''an hour of prayer in a spirit of penance to implore peace in our time, peace in this world.
