Congratulations to our beloved church "The Holy Apostolic Catholic Church of the East". The Church that stood tall and protected its people through two thousand years or pain, struggle and genocides. The church that uttered the word Assyrian and protected the identity and language of this Nation despite the attacks and dangers that it faced throughout history
Congratulations to this beloved Bride of Christ that was simultaneously loyal to Christ and to its nation. Congratulations to the church that was the father and the mother to the Assyrians
In this church our politicians that call for the Assyrian identity today, were born
In this church they learned and understood what it means to be an Assyrian. The wings of this church were always the protective shield for them, to the point that their own patriarchs became Martyrs for the sake of this nation. This church indeed is the church of the martyrs and it's the backbone of our Assyrian Nation. Without this church we are going to be scattered and it will be very hard to gather us
Our enemies know that in order to strike the Assyrian Nation they must strike the church and the leader of the church, and as they say, strike the shepard and the sheep will scatter. But with God's love, Mar Dinkha's faith, the tremendous effort of our church leaders and the true Assyrians who understood this tremendous danger that was facing us, we concurred this wicked agenda of our lost sheep and showed the world that we will be behind the church of the martyrs and sacrifice everything in order to keep it strong and prosperous
Before any political party was born in the Assyrian arena, The Assyrian church carried the burden of protecting our people for thousands of years. There has never been a time were this church betrayed its people. That is why we should stand behind it and give back to it. Without it we are lost and that is why this church was viciously attacked
With the slightest wind strike, some of our politicians changed colors in order to protect them selves. I have yet to see one political group that can stand in front of fire for hundreds of years and protect the people, the way the Assyrian Church did, with the blood of its patriarchs, priests and bishops
Congratulations again, and for those that keep uttering the name "Umta" without any regard to the word "Eta" I will say, if you can't love this church that carried your Assyrian "Umta" for two thousand years, when no Assyrian politicians existed, I don't understand how you can say you love your Umta
We love you oh bride of Christ, We love you oh mother of the Assyrians. You are forever in our hearts and nothing can touch you as long as we exist
God Bless all that love this church and May God also forgive and bring back the rest of the Assyrians that were brainwashed by this wicked scam
