Saturday, December 22 11:00 - 2:00
Washington, DC Exact location TBD
As with last year's event, Mary and Joseph, with donkey, will lead the procession. Sing hymns, offer prayers, and hear messages of peace. Bethlehem, the city of Jesus' birth, is under occupation. All its residents, including Palestinian Christians, are suffering. Behind the wall that separates neighbor from neighbor, patient from hospital, student from school and farmer from land, Palestinian Christians will continue to bear witness to their faith this Christmas, as they have done for generations. Let us join our voices with theirs in seeking and offering hope for a better future.
Sponsored by the Ad Hoc Committee for Bethlehem and the Washington Interfaith Alliance for Middle East Peace For updates on location and details, contact Samia Noursi at 703.255.4150.
