The Gaza Nativity

~ The Koboi Project
The Pastor of the Lutheran Church in Bethlehem, Munther Ishaq, says that this year, Christmas celebrations are canceled because “it is impossible to celebrate Christmas when our people in Gaza are going through a Genocide.” The nativity display in this church will have figures of Joseph and Mary and the Magi set up as if they are looking for baby Jesus amid the rubble. While celebrations are canceled, in solidarity with the people of Gaza, he says that there will be Christmas prayers and “maybe when we look at the image of Jesus under the rubble we see a light of Hope and Life coming out of Destruction.”
