JUNE 27 & 28:
Olive Wood from the Holy Land – for sale at all Parishes the weekend of June 27 & 28!
Representatives with The Shepherd And The Lost Sheep will be joining us to ask for your help and blessing for the native people of the Holy Land in Bethlehem. These families, sixty years ago, made up 18% of the population. Due to recent events in the Middle East, it has caused these families to face devastating economic strain, and caused the population to decrease to less than 1% in the Holy Land. These families have relied on the income from their religious hand-carved olive wood artifacts to tourists, so we have come to the USA to help support these families by bringing their artifacts here. All the proceeds from sales will be sent back to the families of the Holy Land so that they may be able to keep their homes and provide for their families.
