A powerful video of a Syrian Christian woman giving a moving speech at the site of the Greek Orthodox Mar Elias Church in Damascus has gone viral.

Islamic suicide bombers attacked the church on June 22, killing over 20 congregants and injuring dozens more. Syrian officials attributed the attack to the Islamic State.

According to witnesses, the bomber entered the church with a gun and fired at people before detonating his explosive vest.

In the video, the woman declares that she and her family will never flee their home or their country despite repeated attacks on Christians.
