Travel to Calvary

The Mount of Olives is a sacred place for both Jews and Christians. “And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives” (Matt. 26:30). Imagine seeing this sunset view from Mount of Olives, with Church of Mary Magdalene and Dome of the Rock!

Visitors to the Holy Land of Israel frequently describe their pilgrimage to the Holy Land as a life-changing experience. They find it difficult to express the absolute bliss they feel during this unique spiritual adventure. The reality of so many stories you heard as a child rush in as history becomes a very real experience for you.  You literally follow the footsteps of Jesus. You can find the journey a way to get closer to Jesus or to discover the roots of your Christian faith. Others recount passionate feelings of being human bridges for peace and reconciliation or of feeling part of the rich tapestry of religious history that inspires every corner of this Holy Land.

The three crosses of Calvary at the site just outside the wall of Jerusalem where Jesus was crucified is a popular symbol in the Christian faith. No matter how late in your life you accept Jesus’ message, no matter how dysfunctional you think your life’s actions were, there is a guaranteed new beginning for you in this life and the next when you accept that Jesus is God. “If you declare with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9).

We decorate our churches with these three crosses of Calvary, use three crosses for church logos, people have a three cross decals on their cars, and many wear the three crosses as jewelry.
