Christians descend on Jerusalem for Good Friday

JERUSALEM (AFP) -- Tens of thousands of Christian pilgrims marched Friday along the narrow alleys of Jerusalem's Old City on the path that tradition holds Jesus carried the cross on the way to his crucifixion. The pilgrims were marking Good Friday by walking from the Monastery of the Flagellation along the route now known as the Via Dolorosa or Way of Suffering to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

Filipinos, Indians, Spaniards and Sri Lankans were among those who took part in the procession through the Stations of the Cross under the watch of thousands of Israeli police. Roman Catholic and Protestant Churches celebrate Easter this weekend but for the Orthodox Churches Easter Sunday falls on May 5.

I think Frau Sherri should inform her friends who have young adults that a Christian group would like to invite them to tour Israel. Frau Sherri can send members of her own family as well because as a "good Christian woman," she would like to see young Christians take advantage of this opportunity to visit the Holy Land.
