Christmas Message
A Christmas Message from Dr Caroline Hull
Thank you for your prayers and support this year.
Your generosity has brought joy and hope into the lives of so many who are suffering every day for their Christian faith. You have built churches and kept priests and Sisters going through all manner of hardships in places like Ukraine, Syria, Lebanon, Pakistan and Nigeria. You’ve supported seminarians, purchased vehicles so no one is forced to live without the Sacraments and made so many dreams come true for people who in great need. Your gift to them is hope, and in return their gifts—and ours—to you are prayer and the most profound gratitude…
Thank you for all you are doing to help the Church in need around the world. May God bless you and all your loved ones this Christmas.
