Aboud Village

Aboud village is located about 30 kilometres to the northwest of Jerusalem and on the hills overlooking the Palestinian coast. The village is sited on the ancient road that used to connect Jerusalem with Ra’s al-In (Antipatris) and the Mediterranean. According to the local oral traditions, the Holy Family used to pass through the village when travelling from Nazareth to Jerusalem, and Jesus with his disciples used this route and preached to the locals. Thus the villagers embraced Christianity from the earliest days; this is testified to by the many ancient churches and monasteries scattered in the region, chief among them being St Mary’s Byzantine church and the monastery of St Simon

During the past few years, we have marketed limited amounts of Aboud Olive Oil Soap in America, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany and France. The revenue created has helped several families and has assisted some of our young people in their transportation and tuition fees for university. We look forward to creating permanent markets for our product.
