Christian Church Day

Today was a great day! It was Christian Jerusalem field trip day. We started out by taking vans to new gate and headed into Terrae Sancta. Both of the classes were combined--that is always happy!

Then we split into groups and I headed to St. Mark's church. This church is the first Christian Church in Jerusalem as it was a house belonging to members a really really long time ago. They also believe it is the spot where the Last Supper took place. A really nice lady gave us a tour and talked for a really long time. She told us of different miracles she had witnessed in her 11 years of working there. She then sang to us in Aramaic.

In the "Room of the Last Supper" with Lindsay Hall!

Our next church was Alexander Nevsky's church. It was next to The Church of the Holy Sepulcher and it was a beautiful.

Next we went to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher which was great because I had done my site report for ANE. Lovely.

Finally we went to the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer Cloister. It was absolutely beautiful. We sang some hymns there and then we were let free to wander the city.

It was a peachy day.

I thought Dad would enjoy this picture!
