About us
The Holy Land Association is the non-governmental charitable organisation of the Custody of the Holy Land. It promotes and coordinates activities for the development of international solidarity in the Middle East, particularly in the areas in which the Custody of the Holy Land is represented:
Israel, Palestinian Territories, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Cyprus, Rhodes
The mission of the Holy Land Association is to support the Custody of the Holy Land:
- Preserving the Holy Places dear to Christianity
- Supporting the Christian community in the Middle East
- Promoting peace and dialogue
These tasks were entrusted to the Custody of the Holy Land by the Church. The Holy Land Association would like to give everyone the opportunity to contribute to the fulfillment of this mission; in particular by supporting the Franciscans’ projects.
“The Holy Land is not just any place; it is the the cradle of our faith and the land of our roots. We have the duty to be deeply rooted Christians and to share our testimony: to bear witness, through our actions, to a hope that does not abandon the truth… Our works, our solid commitment – each and every one of us – and our testimony should be an expression of who we are.”
