Every year on Good Friday, Catholics around the world are invited to contribute to a special collection that directly supports the Holy Land. This collection is part of the Holy Father's push to strengthen ties between the faithful and the Holy Land. It serves as the primary source of funding for the maintenance of some of the most venerated and visited Christian shrines in the world. Father David Grenier, the U.S. Commissary of the Holy Land and a Franciscan of the Custody of the Holy Land, explains how these funds are used to make an impact in a region marked by conflict and hardship. He also shares the work he and his brothers do in the region to support the Holy Land.
