Herod's Mount

(Note:  Again, if they are following their itinerary, our travelers have by now visited Mount Gerizim (considered to be the location of the near-sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham), Bethlehem (via Ramallah), and Jaffa-Tel Aviv.  Fr. Biju will have celebrated Mass with them in St. Peter’s Church.  In Tel Aviv, they likely visited the Vatican Embassay, an Artists Market, and an Organic Farmers market.  They also visited the Church of the Nativity and Fr. Biju celebrated Mass with them at the Manger Grotto.  In Bethlehem, they also spent time in the Milk Grotto and Jerome’s Grotto before moving on to Herod’s Mount.)
