His Beatitude Fouad Twal gave his Christmas message through his Vicar in Jerusalem and Palestine, Bishop William Shomali, during the press conference at Terra Santa College.
He said that we should remember with gratitude the solidarity of many people, organizations, institutions and States, who have come to our aid through many ways and means.
And, the celebration of the Birth of Jesus promises mercy, love, and peace to countless people in their suffering and tribulation; to people who see their lives shattered and their efforts broken in the tumultuous strife and hatred of our stormy days.
In the end he wished a blessed Christmas and a new year full of peace and good health for our faithful of the Holy Land, our friends around the world and our beloved pilgrims.
