Chaplain Capt. Sean Magnuson, a priest assigned to U.S. Forces-Iraq, conducts Catholic Mass with parishioners at Contingency Operating Site Marez, Feb. 6. Magnuson visited COS Marez to conduct Mass for the first time since deploying to U.S. Division-North in January. Magnuson, from the St. Paul-Minneapolis, Minn. Archdiocese, said that as one of a handful of Army priests in Iraq, it is important to visit the faithful at the various bases across the country to conduct Mass. “It means a lot,” he said. “To me, it’s the core of being a chaplain, particularly a Catholic chaplain - to bring the sacraments to the soldiers and to the people.”
