Unconfirmed Reports - Fr. Thomas Uzhunnalil was crucified by ISIS on Good Friday

Austrian media are reporting that Cardinal Schonborn confirmed it during the Easter Vigil in Vienna on Saturday night.

Until such time as it is confirmed let us continue to pray for him and all the victims of the bombing in Lahore in Pakistan; and if the report proves true, let us sing a Te Deum for him and pray for the conversion of the perpetrators:
