Interreligious peace-seeking in Iraq can take on many forms, ranging from meetings with high-ranking leaders of both religions to parish dinners that gather ordinary people regardless of creed.
On Monday, Cardinal Emmanuel III Delly, patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans and archbishop of Baghdad, met with Abdul Aziz Hakim, leader of the Supreme Iraqi Islamic Council (SIIC), the Shiite party with the largest number of representatives in Parliament.
Cardinal Delly acknowledged "the efforts of the Baghdad government to promote security and stability, as well as unity among all Iraqis." For his part, the SIIC leader recalled "the historic ties that the country has with the Christian community."
