The Old City

Today was a blur to be honest. We began with a visit to the "fake" upper room. Since so many religions have claimed this place there are only corners that Christians can claim where Jesus Christ was. We moved on to the Church of the Holy Sepulecure. Think ancient marketplace of churches. There is a Greek, Armenian, and Catholic Church under one roof. There is no explanation of the madness.

We moved on to begin the Via Dolorosa in rewind. I really can't describe the feeling of walking where Jesus walked. All I can suggest is to Google the stations and imagine being at each of them.

Following a shopping stop we headed back to the hotel for our farewell dinner with those that aren't continuing to Jordan. We truly are a Chosen Group. We have all been blessed by the blessing of each other. These are my Jewish and Christian brothers and sisters. We have names and addresses that will be used to continue our journey with God.
