Father Michael Driscoll
provided an overview of Eastern Orthodox liturgies, describing the origins
and inter-relatedness of these traditions. He then led a half-day
tour of pilgrimage sites of importance to Byzantine visitors to the Mount
of Olives and Old City of Jerusalem. The tour included the Church
of the Ascension, Dominus Flevit, the Magdelene Church (Russian Orthodox),
Pater Noster (Our Father Church), St. Anne's, the Via Dolorosa, and the
Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Click on highlighted images
