On May 5th, we went with the students on a field trip to see several sites. The following 3 pictures are from the Augusta Victoria church, which is close to the Jerusalem Center. The first show Dr. Skinner telling the students about the building (the land was given to Germany by the Ottomans, who owned the land and eventually this church and hospital were built on the land. There is a beautiful painting of Christ riding to Jerusalem (Palm Sunday). We climbed 5-6 flights of stairs (I lost count) to the Bell Tower, where I took a picture of the land below.
