One more image (cropped) from the INRI collection to make the 2002 Christmas memory complete. This image is called (in German), "Die Trauer Um Die Ersten Martyrer". They are the mothers who suffered loss in Bethleham when Herod ordered the death of the young. It is a reminder that the first Christmas was bitter sweet. There was life and death, generosity and jealousy, the giving of the son and the taking away of other sons. The Christmas of 2002 will be remembered by the murder of 3 girls in Pakistan - 6 years, 11 years and 15 years old.
