Jerusalem 2

At the western wall the men and women prayed separately, a very powerful experience. Reformed Jews are working hard to get women shared access.

While waiting, a Jewish woman 'witnessed' to some in our group about the importance of keeping the ten commandments.

One of the ladies in our tour is a delightful woman who is severely crippled and wheelchair bound. It's been a God thing that we are here because most others in the group would not been able to help her get around Jerusalem. So our group, especially Wayne and Tim, have done the lion's share of carrying her through the rough cobbled streets and many narrow stairs. Harry (in the photo with Tim), our tour leader, and I, alternated between carrying her and walking in front through the narrow, crowded alleys, like Moses parting the Red Sea.
