Jerusalem, Israel


 
DAY THREE HIGHLIGHT: The 2009 Journey Home Tour’s much-anticipated arrival in Jerusalem was celebrated with an official welcome – complete with the tradition of eating bread with salt and drinking grape juice – from Yael Eckstein, daughter of Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, founder/president of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Soaking in the expansive overview of Jerusalem, Pastor Ahamad Alli of Queens Village, N.Y., responded, “This is beyond my imagination.”

INITIAL SIGHTING OF JERUSALEM: Tears and rejoicing were evident as the Journey Home pilgrimage reached its destination of the Golden City after traveling from Jericho – the lowest and oldest city on earth – up to Jerusalem, an ascent of 4,000 feet in 13 miles. The first glimpse of the recognizable shiny gold Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount prompted camera enthusiasts to move to one side of their buses to capture the glorious scene.

DAY FOUR’S ITINERARY: On Thursday, the tour will begin exploring Jerusalem and visit an absorption center, where those making aliyah under Fellowship sponsorship are educated about their new life experiences in Israel.
