The other day we took a walk down to the old city and we ended up going to the church of the Flaggulation and the church of the condemnation. As the names indicate they church of the condemnation is where Christians believe that Christ was condemned and the church of the Flaggulation is where Christians believe he was beaten and whipped. The first two pictures were taken at the church of the condemnation and the other picture was taken at the church of the flaggulation.

Today i had the opportunity to go and volunteer at the Princess Basma Center for Disabled Children. I worked with the hearing impaired. They had these high tech chips that were implanted in their heads that helped them to hear. They were so cute. We just played with them. It was a little difficult because they didn't understand English and we didn't understand Arabic. At first we tried to play ring around the rosies because it didn't involve too much instruction they just followed what we did. They didn't understand anything we said but they liked the falling down part of the song. After a while the teachers took over with the games and we just sat in on the games and played with them. They really enjoyed having us there. They always wanted to sit by us and hold our hands. After our games we played with playdough with them. After that i got out my camera and started taking pictures and the kids just went crazy. They all wanted to be in the pictures. I sat down on the ground and they all tried to come over and sit on my lap. It was so cute. I really had a lot of fun!!! I would love to go back again. Down below are a couple of the pictures that were taken. The one with the 3 of us girls i am standing with my roommate Bre and Janay another girl from the Jerusalem center. The picture with me and the little girls is them wearing the little crowns that i made for them out of the playdough.
