The BSP pilgrims headed out again in Israel with another busy schedule!
We started off our day visiting the Church of the Pater Noster, the place where Jesus taught his disciples the Lord's Prayer.Here, we could see the Lord's Prayer in many different languages!
We then walked as Jesus did during Palm Sunday, walking alongside what is believed to be the path he took.
We then visited Dominus Flevit, the church where Jesus wept over the city of Jerusalem.
We then visited the Church of the Tomb of Mary. It was here where the group celebrated mass.
After that, the group visited the Garden of Gethsemane and the Basilica of Agony.
Later on, we visited the Chapel of the Ascension. Inside, the group reflected upon a stone with the impression of a footstep said to have been made by Jesus ascending into heaven.
In the afternoon, we ventured to Mount Zion. We first stopped by the Dormition Abbey, believed to be the home of John the Apostle, who took Mary into his home after Jesus' crucifixion.
We then visited the Upper Room, the place of the Last Supper.
Lastly, we went to the Church of St. Peter in Gallicantu, believed to be the site where Peter denied Jesus three times. It was also here where the group had a moment of prayer in the crypt.
Hard to believe there are only two days left!! What new places will this adventure hold?
