Bringing Hope to Bethlehem

[caption id="attachment_468" align="alignleft" width="300"] From Meg Wroe's exhibition "All They Paint is the Wall"[/caption] O Little Town of Bethlehem... Today the 'little town of Bethlehem' lies behind an eight metre high concrete separation wall, built by the Israeli occupation forces. Many people may not be aware just how hopeless and how oppressive the situation in Bethlehem has become. For peace to come to Palestine and Israel, the injustices faced by the Palestinians must be addressed. This Christmas, Kahaila is supporting Amos Trust's work with local Palestinian peacemakers in Bethlehem.  The Holy Land Trust train young people from Bethlehem in non-violent ways to end the conflict and the ongoing occupation of the West Bank.
