theimeu:There are roughly 200,000 Palestinian Christians living in the land of Christ’s birth, descendants of some of the oldest Christian communities in the world. Most Palestinian Christians live in Bethlehem and East Jerusalem in the occupied territories and the Galiliee region in northern Israel. Due to the difficulties of living as a non-Jew in Israel and under Israeli military occupation in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza, the Christian population of the Holy Land has been dwindling for years.
