Today\u2019s Second Collection: The Holy Places \u2013 Every day, young Christian families in the Holy Land try to live upright lives, centred on the teachings of Jesus, just as we do. These Christians, living where Christ walked and taught, lived and died, still live in a land of war, death and destruction. The work of the Franciscan Friars for these native Christians, for the poor, and for the pilgrims who come to visit, depends greatly on your support. Thank you for your generosity.<\/p>\n

House Blessings: Eastertide is traditionally one of the seasons, together with Christmas, when houses are blessed. If you would like your house blessed, please speak to Fr. Domenico.<\/p>\n
