The Holy Family Church (Arabic: كنيسة العائلة المقدسة) of Gaza City is the only Catholic church in the Gaza Strip, State of Palestine.[1][2] The parish includes a school which provides a Christian education to children in Gaza, and it works closely with the nearby religious congregations of the Missionaries of Charity, Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matará,[3] and the Rosary Sisters.[4] The Missionaries of Charity care for the elderly and disabled,[5] and the Rosary Sisters operate a school.[6] The community is served by priests from the Institute of the Incarnate Word.
