The Peace Lamp initiative was launched in Taybeh in 2004 by Fr. Raed
Abusahlia, the village priest, both as a means to unite the world in prayer for the Holy Land and to create employment
for young people in the village. He has worked very hard to save the status of Taybeh as the very last totally
Christian village remaining in the Holy Land.

Peace Lamps can now be found on the altars
of St Peter's in Rome, Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, St Catherine's in Bethlehem and thousands of churches throughout
the world. We would like to put one in your church too!
