Bashir writes: Dear Orthodox brethren, I am an Orthodox Christian from the town of Beit Jala (15,000 inhabitants). My town has 5 churches: 3 Orthodox, 1 Catholic, and 1 Protestant. The largest church is the Birth of the Theotokos built in 1863. But the most famous is that of St. Nicolas, the patron of the town. It was built in 1921 above a Byzantine cave church (4th century) and is believed to be the place where St. Nicolas spent his time as a pilgrim in the Holy Land. #iamorthodox #sharethelight
