You are a small flock, but one with a great responsibility in the land where Christianity was born.
Holy Land
Bishops see suffering but believe prayer is powerful, peace is possible+
"I had a deep sense of the presence of Mary on this pilgrimage."
Church continues the work of Christ in the Holy Land+
"Surrounded by so many observant Jews praying alone or in groups, I felt part of an enormous and blessed tradition."
Pilgrimage offers insight into the realities of life in the Holy Land+
"I will pray for all of you as I ask you to join us bishops in prayer for peace in the Middle East."
