• Build community between Christians throughout the world and Arab Christians of the Holy Land through pilgrimages, publications, and communication.
• Develop bonds of solidarity through church-to-church, family-to-family, and person-to-person partnership programs in order to bring Christians together in community for future cooperation.
• Promote peace, justice, and reconciliation in the Holy Land by removing the causes of human suffering and replacing despair with hope, fear with security, and humiliation with dignity.
• Undertake specific projects designed to advance better living conditions for Arab Christians in the Holy Land. Projects focus on creating employment, advancing education, building and rehabilitating houses, and developing the healthy growth of children.
