Day 8 Bethlehem

- Holy Land 2018

This is the Christmas Day of our journey. We begin at Shepherd’s Field where the first to learn of the birth of the Savior were informed by the angels. Then we travel on to worship with the local Arab Catholics at Our Lady of Fatima Parish in Beit Sahour. Next is to tour the Church of the Nativity and venerate the site of the birth of Our Lord. Then there is some time for shopping and rest.
