The apostolate is overseen by the Vatican's Dicastery for the Service of Integral Human Development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the United States, Auxiliary Bishop Frank Schuster of Seattle is the Episcopal promoter of Stella Maris. According to the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the United Nations agency responsible for ensuring maritime safety, security and environmental compliance, an estimated 20,000 seafarers are currently stranded in the Persian Gulf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The situation of the seafarers is \u201cterrible\u201d.\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IMO Secretary General Arsenio Dominguez shared that figure in an interview with CNN on April 16, describing the seafarers\u201c situation as \u201dterrible.\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt's about mental health, it's the exhaustion that these innocent sailors are suffering,\u201d he told CNN anchor Richard Quest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dominguez said he was very grateful to the countries of the region because they continue to provide essential supplies, even with the challenges that exist!.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But he warned that \u201cthe longer this conflict drags on,\u201d the more the situation at sea will escalate into a crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Strait of Hormuz officially closed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iran officially closed the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic maritime point connecting the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman, on March 4, days after the United States and Israel launched joint strikes on February 28 that killed several senior Iranian officials, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the war, both Iran and the United States have blockaded the strait, and continue to do so despite the cease-fire and a brief respite in the blockade of maritime traffic. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told a press conference on April 24 that the blockade would remain in place \u201cas long as necessary.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At least seven sailors were killed in March when their ships were attacked, and Dominguez issued a statement on March 6 calling the blockade \u201cunacceptable and unsustainable\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.omnesmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/OrmuzStellaMarisSacerdoteReligiosa.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.omnesmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/OrmuzStellaMarisSacerdoteReligiosa.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.omnesmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/OrmuzStellaMarisSacerdoteReligiosa-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.omnesmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/OrmuzStellaMarisSacerdoteReligiosa-9x12.jpg 9w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Auxiliary Bishop Frank Schuster of Seattle, promoter of the Stella Maris Maritime Apostolate in the United States, and Sister Joanna Okerke, a religious of the Congregation of the Holy Child and national director of Stella Maris in the United States, on a pastoral visit to SLV Honduras on April 8, 2026, during their stay in Port Everglades, Florida.

Paul Makar, a Ukrainian Catholic priest of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osvnews.com\/?s=Archeparchy+of+Philadelphia\">Archdiocese of Philadelphia<\/a> who is training for the ministry at Stella Maris, told OSV News that it is critical to provide the stranded sailors with \u201cat least some kind of assistance.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The priest, a former naval officer and qualified naval engineer, said that crews caught in the blockade face a number of stressors exacerbated by the conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since more than 80 % of the world's goods are transported by sea, Father Makar explained that the work involves long months at sea and demanding port loading schedules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He explained that sometimes the teams work \u201cbetween 24 and 36 hours at a time just to meet loading and unloading deadlines\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Storms, piracy, security in the midst of anxieties<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other concerns he mentioned were storms, piracy, security problems and vessel abandonment, a situation in which shipowners withdraw support for ships, leaving seafarers stranded and uncompensated far from home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Data from the International Transport Workers' Federation show that abandonment reached record levels in 2025, with more than 6,000 seafarers affected that year alone, the sixth consecutive year of such increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, according to Father Makar, the sailors affected by the blockade are worried about their next meal and whether they will have air conditioning and enough fuel. There are some ships that have not been able to receive fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He asked for prayers for all those affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt's a very dangerous profession, and has been since the beginning of time,\u201d Father Makar said, adding that Stella Maris and other maritime ministries \u201calways strive\u201d to let seafarers know that \u201cthey are not alone.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gina Christian is a multimedia reporter for OSV News.
