A recent collaboration – facilitating unity

The Nazareth Village recently hosted a filming production on an evening shoot session. The purpose of this media visit was to create three music videos of Christmas songs – intentionally fostering unity between Arabic and Jewish believers – by singing them in English, Arabic, and Hebrew. The singers in the video come from amongst the locally well-known Christian Arab and Messianic Jewish musicians and worship leaders, such as Nizar Francis and Joshua Aaron. It was our pleasure to help facilitate unity in the Body of Christ locally and internationally by providing the authentic first-century backdrop for these songs celebrating the Coming of our Messiah into the world.

A resurgence of visitors coming to Nazareth Village (Post COVID-19): close to 60,000 in 2022

After having a record year in 2019 with more than 120,000 visitors, COVID-19 shut us down for about 20 months! We were so thankful to God, and to you, our faithful partners and supporters, to be able to open again, in the fall of 2021. However, considering all the upheaval and instability in the world, and specifically, incoming tourism to the Holy Land, we were not sure what would happen. We are very glad to report that we are seeing many of the tour leaders and faithful friends we have gotten to know over the years, returning to Nazareth Village and bringing their groups here. It is a great encouragement to us. Praise God!
