ADVENT BEGINS-Franciscan Friars of the Holy Land

http://www.myfranciscan.org/index.cgi/517


I received this email today:

With the coming of the New Year, the Franciscan Foundation for the Holy Land invites you and your loved ones to send your prayers in time for the Special Prayer Service to be held at the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem by the Franciscan Fathers in the Holy Land.

Today is the day to send your prayer to the Church of the Nativity - the place where the Virgin Mary gave birth to our Lord Jesus!

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Throughout the centuries, millions of Christian believers have made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. They have prayed for their loved ones at these Holy Sites and have literally walked in the 'Footsteps of Jesus'.

The pilgrimage experience of visiting and praying at the Holy Sites is one of the greatest spiritual experiences one can have. It leaves a mark on the soul of the believer till the day he dies.

We know how much you may wish to come and pray at these Holy Sites but we are equally aware of the expense of travel these days coupled with working schedule. This special service is in your honor and in honor of all the thousands whose prayers we receive daily; and for all those who are searching the Spiritual Light of this Holy Place.

We accept all requests with great respect and confidence. We know how important and efficacious the power of prayer is especially at this Holy Site. May God Bless You!


Fr. Peter F. Vasko OFM,
President, Franciscan Foundation for the Holy Land
Please make your friends aware of this momentous opportunity.
