October 30-31: Sale of Olive Wood Goods to Benefit School of Joy in the Holy Land

Maysoon Khair will be visiting our Collaborative on the weekend of October 30-31, selling handcrafted Olive Wood items such as nativity scenes, crucifixes, rosaries, and many other beautiful religious items in support of School of Joy, a school in the greater Bethlehem area for children with diversified abilities.

The continued effects of the global pandemic on the tourist economy in the Holy Land has had a serious impact on the school’s finances. If you are able to support this wonderful organization by stocking up on Christmas gifts, you’ll be a double blessing! 

Please look for Maysoon and the wonderful carvings before and after Masses at St. John the Evangelist Church on the weekend of October 30-31.
