As we prepare for the joy of the Resurrection during Holy Lent, I invite you to reflect upon Saint Francis’ prayer, sacrifice and love for the poor as Pope Leo XIV proclaimed 2026 a special Jubilee Year in remembrance of the 800th anniversary of his death. Although most of us will not live out radical poverty like Saint Francis, we can still participate in his profound accompaniment and charity towards others by making a sacrificial gift.

Dear Friend in Christ, I would like to ask you to consider helping Our Lady of Lebanon Maronite Catholic Seminary. The Seminary is located near Catholic University of America in Washington, DC.
