The Hong Kong Institute of Jingjiao Studies (HKIJS) has received a personal message of condolence from His Holiness Mar Awa III, Catholicos-Patriarch of the Assyrian Church of the East, regarding the tragic fire in Tai Po.
His Holiness expressed deep sorrow for the loss of life and assured us of his prayers for the injured, the missing, and all families affected. He also asked after the well-being of us at HKIJS in Hong Kong.
“I wish to express my condolences and my prayers with everyone there… we will keep all of you in prayer. God bless.”
HKIJS is grateful for His Holiness’s pastoral support at this time of grief.
