Dear Friends,

I' have joined a team of fellow seminarians that will run across Italy on March 23rd. This is my first year doing it, but the fifth time a group of seminarians and priests will have done it. This event is not just for fraternity and exercise, but to raise funds for Syrian Christians and I am asking for your support to help our brothers and sisters in need. This money will go towards food to alleviate hunger in their time of difficulty.

100% of your gift made through my page or our team will go directly to help suffering Christians in this troubled region through Aid to the Church in Need, a Catholic charity under the guidance of the Holy Father.

My fundraising goal is $1,000.  With your support we can do a lot for our brothers and sisters in Syria. To donate, click on the Donate Now button on this page.

Thank you and may God bless you. As well be assured of my prayers for you this Lent. I would also ask that you pray for myself, the other other runners, and, of course, the Christians in Syria.
