Hometown of John the Baptist - live virtual tour

In a one and a half hour virtual tour between two churches - Church of Visitation commemorating Mary's visit to Elizabeth and St. John Ba Harim Church where John the Baptist was born, two churches that comemorate two events that gave Christianity two of the most ancient hymns - The Magnificat or song of Mary, and Benedictus, the song of Zechariah. And in between these two churches we will learn of some unique individuals that came to live in Ein Kerem at the western part of Jerusalem following the charisma of John. These include Saint Marie Alphonsine, Major General Charles Gordon, sister in law of the last Russian Zar, all followed the forerunner's place of birth and where he grew as a child. We will walk through the picturesque alleys of the village that has not changed much during the last 2000 years, imagine him walking beside us and perhaps better understand his childhood.
