The Peace Light of Bethlehem arrives in the Czech Republic

On Saturday, Czech scouts brought the Peace Light of Bethlehem to the country. The light was first transported by plane from Bethlehem to Austria, from where it was then distributed in Linz to volunteers from all over Europe. Czech scouts brought two lit lanterns by train and one lantern by car to Brno. In the coming week, the Peace Light will be further distributed throughout the Czech Republic.

Czech scouts have been participating in the initiative that spreads a message of Christmas peace since December 1989.
