Holy Land Pilgrimage 2006


...with Spiritual Director Father Mitch Pacwa 

Palm Sunday, April 9, 2006  


Jerusalem was quite busy for our pilgrimage, in addition to Holy Week  the Jewish celebration of Passover in 2006 began in the evening on Wednesday, April 12 and ended in the evening on Thursday, April 20.  Holy Week doesn't always fall during Passover, but in 2006 it did - as it will again this year in 2014.  

We woke up bright and early on Palm Sunday morning and made our way to the old section of Jerusalem to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for Palm Sunday Mass.  Following Mass we went to Bethphage to participate in the Palm Sunday Procession.
