Holy Land Trip, Day 6

Chapel of the Ascension

This is the high point on the Mount of Olives, where Jesus ascended into Heaven. A church was built there in 390. 600 years later it became a mosque when Muslims were in control of the area. Muslims recognize Jesus and his ascension, so it remained a holy sight.

Here is Mike, sharing his vast knowledge of the area.

This is it. Don't you see it? When Jesus ascended into Heaven, wouldn't he first have left a footprint that would last for thousands of years? Some obviously think so, and this footprint can be found inside the little mosque.
