Friends of the Holy Land held ecumenical services in Temple Church, London, St Andrew's Cathedral, Glasgow and Coventry Cathedral to mark their 10th anniversary.
Our purpose
To secure a resilient and enduring community in the West Bank, Gaza, Israel and Jordan - the part of the world that Christians call the Holy Land

Our Objectives
- To raise awareness of the challenges facing the Christians of the Holy Land
- To encourage prayer on their behalf
- To generate financial resources to give them a sustainable future
- To encourage visits (pilgrimage) to the Holy Land to meet local Christians
In 2020, our 10th year, we revisit and rethink our commitment to our four objectives. We commit to Stand Firm with our Brothers and Sisters and be counted so that they have evidence that they are not forgotten at least by Christians in the UK.
We ask you to commit your time and resources by Standing Firm in Prayer, Standing Firm by speaking out to others of our mission, Standing Firm by planning to visit soon on pilgrimage and Standing Firm by your commitment to regular giving, however small.
Please let us know of these commitments by registering your prayer group to the Prayer Bank we are building, by volunteering to be an Advocate two or three times a year, by letting us know in advance of your pilgrimage plans and by completing our standing order; you can do this by post or by calling into our office.
