Full Day at the Temple Mount

Good day to you friends,

Again, events are happening so quickly i cannot keep up the posts I want to send.  Yesterday I simply was unable to provide info on the Garden Tomb, Garden of Gethsemane or the Church of All Nations which is the location of the rock on which Jesus actually prayed just before he was arrested. The apostles, Peter, James and John, as I recall were napping in the Garden some 50 yards from where Jesus sweated like blood of what he was about to experience.


So, I plan to provide information and photos of those sites when time allows even if it is after return to the U.S. on Friday of this week. Keeping up with days is a challenge over here.

Anyway, today we visited the Temple Mounts, were able to see the Eastern Gate from the inside, visit St. Anne's church which is the location of the church of Mary's mother, the only Crusader church in existence which was used by the Muslems after they defeated the Crusaders; the Upper Room, King David's tomb, the Hula Steps where Peter healed the cripple man, the Bethesida Springs, and on and on.

So for today it is photos. As my friend Gary Garth said, photos do alot more than text sometimes, or something like that. I hope you enjoy
