11:00 a.m. – ADULT FORUM, Gathering Space – CHRISTMAS IN BETHLEHEM
- Join members Martha Monson Lowe and George Lowe for a glimpse into Christmas in Bethlehem in the 21st century. The “little town” is not so little anymore. “Hopes and fears” are ever present. Yet, “the everlasting light”, the “holy child of Bethlehem”, draws us always to Him, and “the dear Christ enters in”.
- Note: Palestinian arts and crafts will be available for sale before worship and after the congregational meeting.
HANDMADE PALESTINIAN ARTS AND CRAFTS FOR SALE
- Good Shepherd members Martha Monson Lowe and George Lowe are pleased to offer handmade Palestinian arts and crafts from the Holy Land for sale.
- All items were collected from artists and shopkeepers during their last visit, when Martha and George volunteered at Bethlehem Bible College.
