On the weekend of October 19th/ 20th, 2019, there will be a display of beautiful olivewood handmade carvings from the Holy Land in our church. These Carvings are made by the Christians of Bethlehem who use them as their source of income. These brothers and sisters of ours are enduring hardships at this moment because of the volatile situation in their home country. Christians in the Holy Land used to be more than 37% of the population. There is less than 1% now because of the situation. As Christians of faith, it is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in Bethlehem. YOU can support them by purchasing some of these beautiful carvings after mass. For more information, please contact us at 202-302-5889 or visit www.BethlehemCarvings.org.” Thank you in advance for all your help and support!
