Help our fellow Christians in the Holy Land…
On the weekend of August 3-4, our brothers and sisters representing the Land of Peace mission, a nonprofit organization, will be visiting our Parishes speaking about the Christians and the ongoing situation in the Holy Land. They will be selling Crucifixes, religious artwork, and rosaries- all made of olive wood which is native to Israel and Bethlehem- to raise funds to help support our fellow brothers and sisters. Since tourism has greatly depleted, Christian families in the holy land who depend on tourists have been greatly affected. The goal of this mission is to help the poor and needy families in Bethlehem and Jerusalem. Sales of these goods will help them very much, and also give you the opportunity to have something authentic from the holy land. Please browse and buy some articles. It is for a good cause and also a help to your personal devotion. Please visit their website:
