Organizers in Delphos have worked with the Peace Light North America organization to bring the burning lantern to Ohio, and its journey to the buckeye state is quite remarkable. Every year in late November, a young kid from Austria lights the lantern from the continuously burning flame of the peace light candle inside the church of the Nativity in Bethlehem where Jesus was born. Once the flame has been transferred, the burning lantern travels from Tel Aviv in Israel to Vienna in Austria.
