[QUOTE="dzheremi, post: 73855777, member: 357536"] Welcome to CF, Jimmy! May God bless your service while in Iraq and keep you safe. Is it safe to assume you can read and understand Arabic, since you are going to be living there? If so, [URL='https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D9%83%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%A6%D8%B3_%D8%A8%D8%BA%D8%AF%D8%A7%D8%AF']here is the most recent list of churches in Baghdad[/URL] (all communions/denominations and neighborhoods; also including some monasteries), from Arabic Wikipedia. Please note the security warnings around some of them, as there has been unfortunately a lot of violence targeted at Iraqi Christians by the terrorist elements that have invaded Iraqi society. But hopefully still this will give you some ideas as to your options on the ground. On the internet you can find a lot more, but it depends on what you are looking for (liturgies, songs, etc.), and if you know Arabic, Neo-Aramaic, etc. Probably if you don't know any of those languages, it would be more difficult for you, unfortunately. I don't know anything about Iraqi Anglicans or Anglicans in Iraq. I know they exist, but they are probably so few that they don't put out much media, or if they do it doesn't reach outside of their community. [/QUOTE]
