Bethlehem Carving Group to Sell Handmade Olivewood Carvings from the Holy Land after the June 17-18, 2023 Masses

On the weekend of June 17-18, 2023, 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 main source of income. These brothers and sisters of ours are enduring hardships because of the volatile situation in their home country. Christians in the Holy Land used to be more than 37 percent of the population; now, there is less than one percent. You can help support them by purchasing some of these beautiful carvings after any of the Masses. For more information, please contact us at 202-302-5889 or click here.
