he Friends of the Holy
Land is a charitable organization, established by
Christian individuals or families, to promote the
spirit of the Gospels, by joining together to do
charitable works in the land of Our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ.
It is simply a Crusade of
Charity and Love for the people of God. The
Friends are devoted to the poor of the countries
historically known as the Holy Land: Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt and Syria.
Under the spiritual protection of the Melkite-Greek
Catholic Patriarch, its 400+ members express this
devotion by collecting clothing, medicines and
liturgical items for the various churches and other
religious and charitable institutions of the Holy
Land.
