On October 25th, 2025, pilgrims from across the Holy Land gathered at the Marian shrine in Deir Rafat to celebrate the feast of their patroness, "Our Lady of Palestine." The celebration was presided over by His Beatitude Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem. The Mass was ended with a procession carrying the statue of the Virgin Mary, in a scene filled with hymns and prayers for peace in the Holy Land.
