***Day 6***

Jerusalem

  • View from the top of the mount of olives
  • Chapel of the Ascension 
  • Garden of Gethsemane
  • Kidron Valley rock cut tombs
  • Rampart walk on top of the Old City Walls 
We will start our morning with a visit to the Haas Promenade and enjoy a panoramic view from the south of Jerusalem, the Old City walls and the hill called Mount Moriah where Abraham was commanded by God to offer Isaac as a burnt offering (Gen. 22:2, 4). With a remarkable view of the Kidron Valley and the Valley of Gehenna we will stand atop the Mount of Olives as Jesus did and enjoy a remarkable view of the “Golden City” of Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount and Dome of the Rock.

Forty days after his resurrection, Jesus ascended into heaven from the Mount of Olives (Acts 1: 9 - 12). Visit the Chapel of the Ascension. 














We will walk down the Palm Sunday road that winds its way down the Mount of Olives. 
In the Garden of Gethsemane,
Peggy will lead a devotion as we reflect on
 the price He paid for us.






















Continue down the Kidron Valley to view the ancient rock cut tombs.













Climbing out of the valley to the Old City we will 
take the Rampart Walk around the top of the Old
City walls.
