With every purchase, we will be supporting Christian families in staying rooted in the Land of Christ. 70 years ago, the Christian population in the Holy Land was 20%, now they are only 1% as more Christians feel pressured to leave their homeland for political reasons. Please note that that only cash will be accepted as payment at this time.
