CWN Editor's Note: In a wide-ranging reflection, Archbishop Eugene Nugent, the apostolic nuncio to Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar, paid tribute to the vibrancy of the Catholic faith in Arab nations.
“Perhaps in Europe we do not have the perception of how alive the Catholic Church really is in these predominantly Muslim countries, or even think that it barely exists,” the Irish-born prelate said. “But when you are there, you discover that it is alive and very lively. Seeing thousands and thousands of people attending these small churches impresses me, encourages me, and strengthens my faith.”
