He will be celebrating his 50 years of priesthood on December 13 this year. For this unique occasion we have decided to give him a very original gift: 11 days of prayer, especially for him. An enormous card will be given to him personally listing all of the people who will pray for him during this time. From the 1st to the 3rd of December, Thomas, the founder of [Hozana](https://hozana.org/en) will be participating in the Voyage of the Common Good, a 3-day trip in Rome with 300 entrepreneurs and committed leaders for the benefit of 3 associations in France. They will be having a private audience with Our Holy Father on December 2. ### How to sign up? Sign our giant Best Wishes Card for Pope Francis’ fifty years of priesthood and service for the Church! All you have to do is **[join the Hozana community of prayer](https://hozana.org/en/community/8594-join-us-to-celebrate-pope-francis-50-years-of-priesthood).** This prayer community exists in 4 languages as we hope to unite thousands of people in prayer and give him the longest list of names as possible! 10,000 first names is the equivalent of a card containing 25 pages. Would you like to offer a beautiful gift to our Holy Father? Sign up right now! ### The program: 11 days of prayer for the Pope!
