SUPPORT HOLY LAND

THE CRISIS

Right now, out of a population of 9 million people living in Israel proper and the territories, there are only 160.000 indigenous Christians or 2% of the total population.
In 1900, Christians comprised 13.2% of the total population.

Our Christians are leaving because they are suffering from the harsh realities of unemployment, poverty, lack of funding for an education, limited housing and health care.
They are also caught in the middle of the conflict with their neighbours whether they be militant Muslims or Israeli counterparts.

This condition leaves them devoid of dignity and hope, filled with despair, and suffering that will eventually cause them to abandon their homeland, the land of their religious roots and heritage.

We are standing on the threshold of a great calamity for the MOTHER CHURCH OF CHRISTIANITY.

NOW is the time to help them by giving back their dignity, their basic human rights of mobility in finding employment, in securing an education, in having medical accessibility and living in dignity with appropriate living conditions.

WITHOUT THE CHURCH OF JERUSALEM, THERE WOUL BE NO CHURCH IN ANY PART OF THE WORLD!

WITHOUT THE MOTHER CHURCH, WE WOULD HAVE NO SPIRITUAL ROOTS AND HERITAGE AS CHRISTIANS!

WE CANNOT SIT BY AND WHATCH THESE GUARDIANS OF CHRISTIANITY SIMPLY DISAPPEAR IN THE VERY LAND WHERE JESUS FOUNDED HIS CHURCH!

WE NEED YOUR HELP!
