Every Easter and Christmas our pastor invites members of the Bethlehem Carving Group to sell their beautiful olive tree carvings. A gentleman spoke briefly, but beautifully, before the final blessing about the plight of the Christians in Bethlehem, who very well may be gone in our lifetime.

For more on Palestinian Christians and their plight as reflected theologically, I strongly recommend a browse through Sabeel's website: sabeel.org . This is an organization of Palestinian Christians who are crystal clear about the non-violent alternatives in resisting Israeli military occupation / imprisonment.
