Christmas visit to the Latrun Abbey

A multi-faith, multi-generational group from Wahat al-Salam - Neve Shalom joined together for a holiday visit to the nearby Trappist abbey of Latrun. There Anwar Dawood, our municipal chairperson, delivered heartfelt greetings for Christmas, praised and thanked the monks for their warm and neighborly relations, and condemned the frequent expressions of religious intolerance occuring throughout our region.

Thanks to all the residents of WASNS who joined us for this important visit. Thanks to Yair Ben Shabbat, who urged us to continue with this beautiful yearly tradition, and to Rita Boulos for organizing the occasion
