Father Tom returns home after being kidnapped for 18 months

The Salzian priest, Father Tom Ozonalil, returned to his home 18 months after he was abducted by unidentified militias in Yemen. 

The priest told  Pope Francis that he offers his pain for the church and he only wanted to pray the Holy Mass every single day.
 
Four nuns were killed as he was kidnapped, but 18 months later, authorities in Amman could reach an agreement to release him.
