Maundy Thursday

We gathered at Ecce Homo, an English speaking congregation connected with Tantur, for their Holy Thursday service, followed by a simple meal. After the meal, the entire congregation walked to Gethsemane, a part of the Mount of Olives, to pray. The altar of Gethsemane Church is built upon the rock that Jesus leaned against as he prayed. From there we waked the Kidron Valley to St Peter's in Gallicantu where Jesus was taken after his arrest. We then went home to await the events of Good Friday.
