This year, I heard the call to prayer instead of carols and shared bread and tomato over a hot fire instead of seafood and salad by the pool.
Jesus walked through this valley 2,000 years ago. He was born 25km to the south-west and baptised 5km to the east. May 2017 bring peace and security to the region, especially to the many families that are hoping to build a solid foundation that will lead to a brighter future for their children.
