18232 Life Israel Woman Touching Stone

This slab of stone is supposedly where Jesus was laid on after he was taken down from the cross.

People who believe regularly come to touch and kiss it.

It is right at the entrance of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher

18242 Life Israel A Group Of Black Folk

Real American Black folk!!! I met these guys in Nazareth, north of Israel. They are members of St. Luke Baptist church in Harlem.

Twenty-two members, including the pastor, came to Israel for what they hoped was the first of an annual trip to the Holy Land.
