Pray for the Christians of Gaza

Brothers and Sisters…this Christmas the Christians of Gaza, both Catholics and Protestants, are having to lay very low out of fear. Many are, it is reported, leaving homes, jobs, friends, and getting out. Pray for them and for our fellow Christians all over the Middle East. These are trying times for them.

Visit, we beseech You, O Lord Jesus Christ, those of Your children and servants who dwell in the Holy Land, granting them peace, safety, security, and deep faith. Guard their lives, preserve their souls, and, whatever they may face, confirm them in that Faith that will bring them to everlasting Life, through the prayers and intercessions of the Mother of God and of all Your saints. Amen.

    It goes without saying that the Orthodox are deserving of mention also!

    We tend to forget that our Eastern Christian brethren are living under the same pressures and afflictions, and they need to be remembered in our prayers.
