After being in the business of manufacturing Christian artifacts and souvenirs for over 50 years, a decision was made to change manufacturing method due to the security situation in the Holy Land and in the entire Middle East, especially in light of the Second Lebanon War in summer 2006, since there aren’t many tourists visiting the Holy Land and being that the Christian pilgrims are our main clients, sales of our products have been reduced by 90% in the past two years bringing our financial situation to a severe state.

The company has come to an understanding with its workers that they will manufacture souvenirs from their home instead of working at the factory. The company has sent a number of representatives to various places in the world such as European countries and the U.S. with the intent of marketing the products around the world. Currently there are 4 representatives of the company in the world.

The products are collected from the craftsmen and brought to one place and each representative orders that products he can best market in the country of his residence.

Our current goals are:

1.As much as possible, to assist craftsmen who have been working for many years in manufacturing of Christian artifacts and souvenirs since most of the craftsmen are members of the Christian community in Israel; to provide livelihood and help them continue living in the Holy Land, for these people are heads of families and most of them are at an age which they cannot find other employment and it is difficult for them to earn their livelihood.

2.To continue manufacturing and marketing Christian artifacts and souvenirs to Christians around the world and in the Holy Land where Jesus Christ was born.

3.The company has begun to train and encourage women with no other source of employment to start working in this field and there are currently three women working with us, despite the difficult state of this branch of business.

4.We are also trying to find other places of employment for members of the Christian community living in the Holy Land for both those working in the artifact manufacturing field and for others who have no source of income. We are trying to teach them the trade and enable them to produce new products relevant to Christianity in order to reinforce them in the Holy Land so they can continue living there instead of immigrating since the Christian population consists of a very small community that is loosing its young generation who tend to immigrate and never return.

5.To continue spreading the word around the world that there are indeed Christians living in the Holy Land.

We manufacture artifacts and products for Christians around the world made by the best craftsmen living in the area of Nazareth, city of tidings, and in villages in the northern part of the Holy Land.

Due to many years of experience in this trade, we manufacture and supply products of highest quality. Most of the products are made from olive tree wood from trees that grow in the Holy Land and the products are hand made after the wood has undergone a special drying process, which takes a few years until the wood is ready for carving.

At the moment, we are in the process of receiving special permits in a number of countries around the world to export a special soap made of pure olive oil of very high quality, which will also provide some financial support to some of the poor Christian families.

We hope that you order our products, since our goal is to help those in need as much as possible (and not only to gain our profit) and we will gladly provide the best products and service.
