Message of the Custos, Fr. Francesco Ielpo, for the Good Friday Collection

Give hope, sow Peace: support Christians and the Holy Land

Jerusalem, Holy Easter 2026

Every year, as Holy Week approaches, our gaze and our hearts return to the land where the Son of God became man and loved "to the end" (Jn 13:1), giving his life "for his friends" (Jn 15:13). It is here that the Paschal Mystery took shape in history, and it is from this event of death and resurrection that the Church was born, sustained by the Holy Spirit and enabled to endure persecution, crisis, and tribulation.

With gratitude for your attention and generosity, we assure you of our remembrance in prayer from the Holy Places and wish everyone a joyful Easter experience as a source of new life.

With fraternal greetings and blessings.
