Enjoy music\, wine\, food\, and friendship for social justice. All ticket proceeds will benefit the Church of St. Catherine in Bethlehem. If you’d like to learn more about support for this concert\, please contact our Music Development Director\, Christina Kay. Email Christina \nTo purchase tickets\, click here. \nThe Church of St. Catherine is the Roman Catholic parish church within the Shrine of the Nativity in Bethlehem and is the sister parish of the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola. The Shrine of the Nativity was built around the Grotto of the Nativity\, which enshrines the location where Jesus is said to have been born. \nThere are fewer than 500\,000 Palestinian Christians remaining in the Holy Land\, which is less than 1.9% of the entire population across Israel\, Gaza\, and the West Bank. Of that number\, Catholic Palestinians number only about 30\,000 across the West Bank\, a statistic that fluctuates often due to the impacts of war and migration. \nThe Church of St. Catherine is a resilient and thriving Roman Catholic parish serving Palestinian families sacramentally and spiritually\, and also financially\, as Palestinians lack safety net structures that support their social\, welfare\, educational\, and medical realities. All funds raised throughout the duration of this concert will go directly to support the social services programs of the parish\, as well as its two K-12 parish schools. Shukran\, thank you\, for your generosity! \nWe will develop joint programming for parishioners here to engage with parishioners there on a Zoom platform in the future. Service trips will also be planned for the future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRoosevelt Andre Credit\, “Roo\,” performs music that inspires him.
