Living in the Holy Land, we experience faith not only in our prayers but in our daily struggles. Each morning, I see the resilience of neighbours—Muslims and Christians—holding fast to hope despite checkpoints, economic hardship, and uncertainty. Our lives are intertwined with the land’s history, sacred and contested, where every stone tells a story of perseverance. In fasting, prayer, and reflection, we remember that faith calls us to justice, compassion, and solidarity. Through small acts of kindness—sharing food, offering help, listening—we embody the enduring spirit of this land, grounded in both Quranic guidance and Gospel teachings.
