Good news.


This year's Assisi Peace Prize went to two women, Samar Sahar, founder and director of a Palestinian orphanage ORPHANAGE, Eng. law. By the custom of London, when a freeman of that city dies, his estate is divided into three parts, as follows: one third part to the widow; another, to the children advanced by him in his lifetime, which is called the orphanage; and the other third part may be by him , and Angelica angelica (ănjĕl`ĭkə), any species of the genus Angelica, plants of the family Umbelliferae (parsley family), native to the Northern Hemisphere and New Zealand, valued for their potency as a medicament and protection against  Edna Calo Livne, an Israeli educator and journalist. The two are friends, and they are also among the candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize The Nobel Peace Prize (Swedish and Norwegian: Nobels fredspris) is the name of one of five Nobel Prizes bequeathed by the Swedish industrialist and inventor Alfred Nobel. .

Sahar, a Christian from Jerusalem, founded a "bread oven" in Bethany so Israeli and Palestinian women could bake the "bread of peace" together.

Father Vicenzo Coil, custodian of the Basilica basilica (bəsĭl`ĭkə), large building erected by the Romans for transacting business and disposing of legal matters. Rectangular in form with a roofed hall, the building usually contained an interior colonnade, with an apse at one end  of St. Francis in Assisi, awarded the prize.
