A church bell that was kept hidden by a Muslim family during the Islamic State’s occupation of Mosul rang out above St Paul’s Chaldean Catholic Cathedral on November 13 for the first time in eight years.

Archbishop Najeeb Michaeel, OP, the Chaldean archbishop of Mosul and Akra, led a procession to the grotto of the Virgin Mary, the patroness of Mosul, in the church courtyard before ceremoniously ringing the bell. “We hope that all the original residents will return to their homes and return to their material and moral rights to enjoy the taste of safety and stability and live in the bosom of their city,” Michaeel said.
