Why should I participate in building the center?
This center is for you, your family, your faithful brethren and community. It is for the whole church and for the nation. Whoever puts a stone in it or prays for it contributes to the strengthening of the church and the building of the nation. This reinforcement depends deeply on the generation of youth and children. Hence, they should have a place to embrace and develop their talents. Thus, it is coming from them and it is theirs as well. They need to be able to discover themselves, to channel their energies and talents to build their potential and develop themselves. This should take place in a facility that establishes the teachings, traditions and the civilization of our Church and our country in their hearts, minds and souls. Therefore, they turn toward God, and sanctify themselves and others around them. They become active, zealous, loving and faithful members of the Church and the homeland. They can share the concerns, the pains, the hopes and the aspirations. All of which reflect positively on their relationships with each other, within their families and others, and become good citizens who can attract others, and help solidify the Christian presence in our Holy Lands.
