In support of the Church in the Holy Land

Wednesday, March 16 2011


From 10 to 13 January 2011, CCCB President Bishop Pierre Morissette attended a meeting in Jerusalem with Catholic Bishops from the Holy Land and other local spiritual leaders. The attached letter sent by Bishop Morissette to the Ambassador of Israel to Canada is a follow-up to the meeting.  Bishop Morissette points out the importance of the Holy Sites for Catholics and other Christians as places of worship, not as tourist sites.
