One additional event...
Dec 13 - Christmas Peace Pilgrimage: For almost 50 years, during the Christmas season, people who believe in the importance of Peace have been gathering in Nazareth to walk the ten miles to Bethlehem,
Pennsylvania. This pilgrimage, symbolic of the journey of Mary and
Joseph, provides all of us, those who walk, those who pass us on the
highway and even those who just read about the walk in the Sunday
paper, with an opportunity to think about what Christmas really
means. Check out http://www.peacewalk.org/
