Pro-Life Month- Part 2 of 4: 50K Births in Bethlehem

Well, almost 50 thousand births!  Holy Family Hospital, located in Bethlehem -- yes, the same Bethlehem in Israel where Mary gave birth to Jesus -- is close to reaching its 50,000th birth in their amazing hospital. See the birth counter here.  Check out their video here.

It's Director General, Dr. Jacques Keutgen, writes:

Located in the Holy Land and open to all, independently of their region, race or financial means, we continue to assure a Christian attendance in the town where the Virgin Mary gave birth to Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our devotion has earned the respect of all communities in Palestine.
Due to our excellent reputation and our respect for other’s dignity and religion, our share of all deliveries in the district of Bethlehem has increased from 37.3% to 59.5% in the last two years.”
