The
Holy Land is plagued with many conflicts, and about the only reasons
it ever makes headlines are the ongoing violence, the religious
extremism there, and the walls that have been built within the
population and in the hearts of people.
As custodians of the
Holy Places in this troubled heart of the world, the Franciscans
want to demonstrate brotherly love for their neighbors. Through
their constructive commitment, they want to be at the service of
others, especially the weakest (children, the sick and handicapped,
minorities), in times of need and in their everyday lives.
