Remember “The Christophers?” Father James Keller, M.M., founded The Christophers in 1945, based on his belief that God has given each individual a special task in life which belongs to no one else. The mission of The Christophers is to encourage people of all ages, and from all walks of life, to use their God-given talents to make a positive difference in the world, as expressed in The Christophers’ motto: “It’s better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.” Learn more at: http://www.christophers.org.
A special opportunity for prayer requests...A Virtual Holy Land Pilgrimage
NAZARETH, Israel, MAY 20, 2007 (Zenit.org).- Faithful worldwide can now take a tour of the Basilica of the Annunciation in Jerusalem, and receive a personal blessing from a priest, without ever leaving home.
A new Web site -- www.mirezo.com -- allows visitors to make a virtual pilgrimage to the Basilica, and with an offering of $10 the pilgrim will receive a personal blessing from a priest in a live Web cast from the church.
The virtual visitor can watch the priest at the Basilica lighting the candle at the main altar, and then personally bless the pilgrim. The Web cast can be saved on a Web account.
"Mi rezo" is Spanish for "my prayer."
The money received from the donations of the users will go to the Catholic community in the city of Nazareth, whose inhabitants include Israelis and Palestinians, Christians, Muslims and Jews.
