Peace Light..Over 1,000 years…burns in Ellwood City this Sat.

The Peace Light began its journey at the Eternal flame in the Nativity Grotto in Bethlehem where Jesus was born. The oil lamps there have reportedly been burning for over 1,000 years. The social network is low-tech…moving through a chain of personal exchanges organized by the Boy Scouts of America and worldwide counterparts using nothing more than a wick dipped in oil or wax. It has traveled all over the world and will be in Ellwood City this Saturday at Dayspring Harvest ministries at 316 Sixth St. from 10 AM till 1 PM. Next you will find it at Habitual Glasss Vape & Skate at 505 Lawrence Ave. from 1-8PM. Come see the Peace Light to be a part of history and the place where Christmas began.
