Last Week Walk Day 1

So I realize that I didn't do this as soon as I should have. Oddly enough through all of my time in Jerusalem these last few days were what I was most excited for...and yet I didn't blog about them until a month later. Pretty pathetic. But, I do have a list of what we did on these days. I think the scriptures were the important part so that each of us can go through and relive what I went through on each of these days. Last Week Walk, Day 1

Bethany
At church: Elyse Barnes (John 1:1–8; cf. Mark 14:1–9, GSLW, 44–45, esp. “The Woman and Her Testimony”);
Hymn 295, “O Love that Glorifies the Son”
Outside of tomb: Thomas Kelly (John 11:38–46)



Bethpage
Adam Peterson (Mark 11:1–10; see GSLW, 13, on accepting Christ as King)
Hymn 69, “All Glory, Laud, and Honor”

Pater Noster
Kaitlyn Hull (Mark 11:20–26 on prayer and forgiveness; this passage was later harmonized with Luke 10:38–11:4, giving the site its later association with the Lord’s Prayer and its title Pater Noster or “Our Father”)
Hymn 145, “Prayer Is the Soul’s Sincere Desire”

Dominus Flevit
Whitney Ricks (Luke 19:41–44 [beginning of Jerusalem ministry]; Matthew 23:37–39 [close of Jerusalem ministry])



Lindsay and my attempt at being "candid"

Orson Hyde Garden
Jared Maxfield (Mark 13:1–8, 24–33; cf. Zechariah 14:1–4 and GSLW, 37, on Second Coming)
Hymn 269, “Jehovah, Lord of Heaven and Earth”)

Upper Room
Matty Crandall (Mark 14:22–25; see GSLW, 55, “The Sacrament and Us”)
Hymn 174, “While of These Emblems We Partake”

St. Peter in Gallicantu
Kate Preece (Mark 14:54, 66–72; see GSLW, 68–69)
Hymn 130, “Be Thou Humble”

It was a pretty amazing day and I was so lucky to be able to be with my professors and students with these amazing experiences.
