The Second Part of a Holy Adventure:Jerusalem

We have just completed our journey to Jerusalem to begin the second half of our pilgrimage. Our journeys to Nazareth and Galilee had been very rewarding, and we are now filled with joy as we begin to know more the city of Jerusalem. As good pilgrims, most of the seminarians are somewhat tired because we have visited so many places and spent a lot of time walking. However fatigue does not remove the desire to know now the city of Jerusalem in all its great importance to our faith. Here we can find places like the Holy Sepulchre, where the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ took place and so many more. On this day after arriving from Galilee, we could relax a bit and explore the city and its holy places. We are always open and expectative of what God wants to disclose to us. Although the weather has been rainy since our arrival in the city; we are not discouraged as pilgrims, but encouraged to continue to find the meaning of our faith in every piece of the “past” that we find around every corner of this ancient city. We expect to have a better understanding of the biblical places in order to better understand the Word of God and bring God's message to the world…
