Christian Quarter Field Trip


Our Christian Quarter field trip was superb! We went to so many different churches and each of them were unique and beautiful!
Custodia Terra Santae
Russian Orthodox Church of St. Alexander Nevsky
The traditional site of Upper Room where the Last Supper was held (in the basement of the Syriac Orthodox Church of St. Mark)
Lutheran Church of the Redeemer
Church of the Holy Seuplchre
In the afternoon we made olive oil! Now I finally understand how it’s made--it’s an incredible process. Our group was filmed and the footage will be used for a video that future visitors to the center will watch. It’s so cool that the JC has the equipment to make it on site! We will each receive a vial of our very own, homemade, authentic Jerusalem olive oil.
