Toronto: October 18, 2016. (PCP) International Christian Voice ICV Chairman Mr. Peter Bhatti commenting on death of Bishop Rufin Anthony said “It was with a heavy heart that I would like to inform Canadian Pakistani Christians that Bishop Rufin Anthony, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Rawalpindi-Islamabad has gone to be with the Lord. He served the Lord for almost 30 years and now rests in peace with our Heavenly Father. Bishop Rufin Anthony was 76 years old.
“Bishop Anthony was a great friend of our family and he was a very strong supporter of Martyr Shahbaz Bhatti. He stood by Martyr Shahbaz Bhatti throughout his struggle for peace and equality in Pakistan” said Peter Bhatti
Bishop Rufin Anthony himself played an extremely vital role in the prosperity of our community in Pakistan. He served as a spiritual director at St. Pius X Seminary in Quetta and as a professor at the Major Seminary of Christ the King in Karachi.
