On the steps up to Calvary
Magnificent day! Great pilgrims – ahead of schedule the whole way. Very late right now so I am just posting Videos 1 and 2 for today.
Video 3 will follow tomorrow – the most exciting part. We had a solemn entry with pipe organs and singing Franciscans as we entered the Tomb of Chris, then we had an audience with the Bishop of Jerusalem. More soon.
