The future prospects of the Christian churches in the Middle East are “not primarily a question of numbers—even if numbers are important—but rather a question of faith,” said Archbishop Michel Sabbah, the retired Latin-rite Patriarch of Jerusalem. He was commenting on a report issued by an ecumenical task force on the Christian presence. Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Louis Sako referred to the report as a “road map” for revival of Christianity in the region.
