We are blessed to welcome a special visit to Immaculate Conception Church from representatives of the Christian community in the Holy Land, who will be offering beautiful handmade olive wood religious artifacts for sale.

A Tradition Passed Down Through Generations

The carving of olive wood trees and the creation of beautiful olive wood religious artifacts is a tradition that has been passed down from father to son for generations, dating back to the time of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

For many Christian families in the Holy Land, the olive wood trade and tourism provide their livelihood. However, due to ongoing hardships and the tremendous decrease in tourism, many Christian families have faced great difficulties, forcing some to leave their homes in search of work and safety.

Help Keep Christianity Alive in the Holy Land

For the past 16 years, this mission has traveled to parishes throughout the United States, bringing beautiful olive wood artwork and religious treasures to our communities while supporting Christians who continue to live in the land where our faith began.

By purchasing these beautiful handmade artifacts, you are helping support Christian families and strengthen the presence of Christianity in the Holy Land.

Come support our brothers and sisters in Christ!

Join us at Immaculate Conception Church on September 26th and 27th. Take home a beautiful piece of the Holy Land while helping preserve a centuries-old Christian tradition.
