Our Visit to the Western Wall!

Today in Jerusalem we visited the holiest of Jewish sites, the Western Wall.  We talked about how the Wall is sacred because it is a remnant of the Wall that once enclosed the Temple.  We all took the time to draw a picture and write a message to God.  We gathered around the "Western Wall" we built, and held our own prayer service.  We sang the Shema together, and then one at a time read and placed our written notes to God in a crack of the Wall.   Sasha and I really enjoyed these precious moments with the children!
