Help us support the Franciscans in Syria - DONATE NOW

As it is known, a terrible earthquake hit Turkey and Syria in the early hours of Tuesday 6 February, sowing destruction and death.
In Syria, it is the north-western regions  in particular that have been hit, where we are also present: the communities of the Valley of the Orontes, Aleppo and Lattakia.
Thanks to God, the friars are all well, but there is enormous damage both in the villages of Knaye and Yakoubie, and in Aleppo and Lattakia. 

Our brothers are doing extraordinary work to take people into our more solid facilities: in Aleppo alone we are taking in and helping more than 2500 people.
As the Custody, we will always do whatever possible to support this mission and to help the local population. We have already started raising funds through the Pro Terra Sancta association and donations can also be sent to the Custody’s Bursar, with the cause “Help for Earthquake Victims.”
