Bethlehem pulls out all the stops

The city of Bethlehem isn’t holding back for Pope Francis’s visit.

CBC News Middle East correspondent Derek Stoffel, @DerekStoffelCBC, tweets a photo of preparations from Manger Square.

Journalist Dalia Hatuqa, on Twitter at @DaliaHatuqa, has posted some pictures to the social network showcasing the city’s — and the Palestinian Authority’s — efforts to send a message surrounding the visit.
