"Help Families in the Conflict-Torn Middle East"

As per Catholic Relief Services,

"Help Families in the Conflict-Torn Middle East

As conflict worsens in the Middle East, millions of refugees and displaced people need our support.
  • In Iraq, the deteriorating security situation has caused mass displacement: 200,000 people are living in collective centers.
  • In Gaza, hundreds of innocent civilians have been killed, and the rapid escalation of violence has devastated current prospects for peacebuilding between Israelis and Palestinians.
  • In Syria, more than 2 million people—mostly women and children—have sought refuge in neighboring countries.
With Caritas partners, we provide families with essential living supplies, support for safe housing, hygiene kits, medical care and trauma counseling.

Please pray for the families affected by the terrifying violence. And please give generously to strengthen our response to the conflicts in the Middle East."
