Bethlehem and NYC | The sanctuary will look a little different this Christmas Season. The Christian Churches in Jordan and the Holy Lands are asking Christians, in light of the continued violence in Palestine and Israel, to focus on the core of Christmas. In some places, like Bethlehem, this means the canceling of all Christmas celebrations except religious ones. At AdventNYC, this year we will forgo Christmas Trees and Poinsettias, in favor of centering our nativity scene and filling the sanctuary with light. If typically you would sponsor/purchase poinsettias for the sanctuary, we encourage you to consider donating that money to The Lutheran World Federation, providing relief efforts in the Holy Lands.
