What did Fr. Larry Richards say about out St. Paul Cruise?
Good Friday with Friends in Old City of Jerusalem!
These Christians in Jerusalem are indomitable. You will never crush their spirit.
They are at the St. Xavier Church within the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem. This is the compound of the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Sites.
Since they can’t celebrate at the Holy Sepulchre, they’re having it at the Franciscan Church near New Gate.
Thanks to my good friend Tarik George Abogarfah for the video!

This is a list of things Jesus saw from the cross on Good Friday, as seen through Scripture, with a few notes to assist your meditation. To read the article and see the images, click the box below 👇👇
