LET US PRAY
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”
– 1 Peter 1:3
As we enter the holy season of Lent, we are reminded of God’s unwavering love and His invitation to draw closer to Him. Lord, we are grateful for the opportunity to pause, pray, and renew our spirits as you invite us to deepen our faith and seek the strength that only you can provide.
In this season of Lent, please consider how you can be a source of light and support for those suffering in the land where our Savior was born and crucified. As faithful supporters of the Franciscan Foundation for the Holy Land (FFHL), you are already making a profound difference in the lives of many Christians in the Holy Land. Your support has provided access to education, healthcare, employment, and safe housing — gifts that allow families to thrive and remain in the land that holds the deepest significance to our faith.
As we approach the joy of Easter, we remember the incredible hope that we are given through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The promise of our risen Savior is one that speaks deeply to the hearts of all who seek Him. It reminds us that no darkness, no pain, and no hardship is everlasting. Christ’s victory over death brings hope and renewal to those in desperate need of His grace.
As we prepare for Easter and the celebration of our risen Savior, I humbly ask you to prayerfully consider a Lenten donation to FFHL. Your generosity enables us to continue providing essential resources and programs that help sustain the Christian presence in the Holy Land.
Thank you for your unwavering support, your prayers and your sacrifices. Your commitment to preserving the Christian presence in the Holy Land is more important now than ever. Together, we can safeguard a legacy of faith that will endure for generations to come.
“If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
– John 15:5
May this Lenten season draw us closer to Christ, enabling us to bear fruit in our lives and in the lives of others, especially those in the Holy Land. Please know that you are in my prayers, and I will continue to pray for you and your loved ones. May your Lent be meaningful, and your Easter celebration full of grace.
