Easter (Journey through New Gate to Holy Sepulchre)

DAY 9: STOP 1

A super early start today - had to leave with group at 5:00 am - walked out of my room outside and heard a cock crow three times - not that unusual here but really intense given the Easter day ahead.  By the way, I recorded the third one I heard and kept recording waiting for the fourth crow and never heard it.

Headed back to the Holy Sepulchre for our private mass (Easter Mass).  We are entered Old City through the New Gate and through the old streets



Getting ready for Mass in the Holy Sepulchre 

Easter Mass led by Deacon Ken and Franciscan Holy City Superior Father Noel
Amazing pic I got of Deacon Ken's head with light radiating around after mass while he was still in the Sepulchre/Tomb

Happy Easter!!! What an incredible experience consecrating the host on Jesus tomb!
