We have a very busy day today. We are meeting at 8.45am to start our visit to the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre. After that we will visit St Anne's Church and Pool of Bethesda followed by lunch at the Austrian Hospice.
Also on today's agenda:
View of the Old City from roof of Ecce Homo Convent
Visit Ecce Homo Chapel and Lithostrotos
Visit to the Church of the Flagellation
Pray the Way of the Cross along Via Dolorosa
Complete the Way of the Cross at the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre.
Mass in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel.
I hope to be able to tell you more about all of these places later on today. However, as you can see we have plenty of oportunities for prayer and reflection today. Fr John Hemer MHM, a chaplain to the Pilgrimage said last night that even though visits my be brief, there will be an opportunity for devotion at all sites.
So please keep us in your prayers today as you will all be in ours.
P.S Pictures will be posted on our Flickr site here later today
