Christmas Eve Celebration: Just outside Bethlehem

Shepherds' Nights Festival




















Very much looking forward to this event. Apparently the Mayor of Bethlehem joins with the YMCA of Beit Sahour in reading from the Bible about the birth of Christ. The Shepherd's field land has been a part of the YMCA property for decades.

Check out this ad/picture that I clipped from a local English publication: "This week in Palestine" (and the text from within the picture describing the event)
