Pontifical Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land

Pontifical Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land

A second collection will be taken up on Good Friday, April 2, in support of the Pontifical Collection for the Holy Land. This collection, in the words of Paul VI is “not only for the Holy Places but above all for those pastoral, charitable, educational, and social works which the Church supports in the Holy Land for the welfare of their Christian brethren and of the local communities.”

Your generosity also assists those such as the Franciscans who have been in the Holy Land since 1209 caring for the poor, protecting the Holy shrines, and keeping the light of Christianity alive.
