On Monday evening we went to the YMCA. There are two things that you need to know to understand why. First, the YMCA is a cool building - it is a landmark in Jerusamlem. Check out the picture. The second thing that you need to know is that there are students who live in towns outside of Jerusalem and might have a hard time getting through checkpoints to MEET every day. These students stay in the YMCA during the week. They come from towns around the area such as Bethlehem.



Anyways, we went to the YMCA to have dinner with the students who are there. After dinner we went up into the tower. It was a lot of stairs in a little spiral staircase. But, the view was amazing. Here is a picture of me at the top of the tower. It is pretty blurry, but in the background you can see the Old City as well as the new wall that is being built.
