Next Time in Jerusalem (June 16)

I have a new place to go on my next trip here. 
 
We met with a group of students who are doing public service for a year.
 
The Americans before they go to college, the Israelis before they go to the army.
 
One told us about going to his brother’s Bar Mitzvah at the Wall.
 
More precisely, at the southwestern corner of the foundation walls for the Temple Mount, near Robinson’s Arch.
 
Men and women can pray together there. 
 
“It was like discovering it for the first time,” he said.  “It was really personal.”
 
Next time, I will be there.
