Holy Land Appeal

Right now, the faithful in the Holy Land are struggling to keep the faith alive in the birthplace of Christianity. The conflict in Gaza has resulted in a humanitarian and economic crisis, causing much pain and suffering to our brothers and sisters in Christ. As the crisis continues, so many of the faithful in the Holy Land are relying on us for urgent aid, so we ask for your help. Together, we can shine the light of Christ’s love in dark places of despair.
