Holy Land’s Humble Christmas: Residents Devastated by Pandemic Draw Closer to Christ Posted by bcadmin | Dec 10, 2020 | News | 0 | Few people walk around after the lighting of the Christmas tree in Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, on Dec. 5. Bethlehem lit up its Christmas tree, but without the usual crowds, as coronavirus restrictions put a damper on the start of Christmas festivities in the city of Christ's birth. Due to COVID-19 and decreased tourism, the solemnity will be subdued this year in Jesus’ birthplace.
