Passion Week Locations

Gethsemane, Jerusalem, Via Dolorosa

We visited some of the locations around Jerusalem that are significant to the week leading up to the crucification of Christ. It is amazing to reflect on Christ’s sacrifice for the whole world and to see these places first-hand, especially as we prepare to celebrate Resurrection Sunday in a couple of weeks back home.

Garden of Gethsemane.
Rock where Jesus agonized before being arrested.
Thorn tree on the Mt. of Olives . . . Jesus’ crown of thorns could have been woven from these.
