We had Arab Night, fitting right since I live in a half Arab Country. This night we had Arab food and Arab customs presented to us. These two men are praying towards Mecca. This is a father and a son sing at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, which is the 3rd most important mosque in the Islam religion. So it was kind of a big deal to have these men come sing. There are 5 prayers that are sung over the whole city every day and these men sing it for the whole city. It was really neat their voices are beautiful.
This the door keeper at the Church of the Holy Sepulachre. His family has owned the church since the 7th century. He cleans the church and has all the keys. He has met a lot of politically important people and celebrities. He is an extremely sweet man who knows the Mormons and loves us. :)
This is at the Russian Convent. Its open very rarely and so it was awesome that we got in.
We call this the Onion Church. It is commemorating Mary Magdalene. It was one of the most beautiful churchs I had ever seen inside, the church is on the Mount of Olives in the middle of beautiful trees.
