This Advent, we remember Bethlehem, where Christians have revered the place of the Christ Child's birth for the last two thousand years. They are the so-called living stones of the Church in the Holy Land. They are the men and women native to this land who have faithfully carried on Christ’s mission and witness through conflict and strife through so many ages.
In a sign of solidarity and encouragement to our fellow Christians in the land of Jesus’ birth, the international Catholic peace organization, Pax Christi, has organized a “prayer and good wishes” campaign to celebrate Advent and Christmas with the Christian community in Bethlehem. Anyone can be a part of it! All you need is a computer and the internet and you can give the gift of prayer and hope to someone who needs it most…
Tracey McClure spoke to the Senior Policy Advisor for the international Catholic peace organization Pax Christi, Fr. Paul Lansu about the initiative, on its 11th year. He explains how you can send your prayer of peace to the Holy Land's Christians!
