emilie jerusalem: "Jerusalem, if I forget you"
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009/04/jerusalem-if-i-forget-you.html
Tuesday, April 21, 2009. Jerusalem, if I forget you". If these walls could talk"what stories would they tell. What secrets do they know? What heartache have they felt? Would it be about the Last Supper meal? Or Mary weeping against the Garden Tomb? Would it be the arch viewing the Saviors struggle to carry the cross out of the city walls up to Calvary? Would it be the story of the trees in the Garden in Gethsemane? Or would it be the waters of Galilee telling about Peter? Life is about serving others.

emilie jerusalem: January 2009
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 24, 2009. Gethsemani with Stephani Tanner and my watermelon outfit (long story). The spot believed to be where John the Baptist was born and circumcised. Not being able to read Hebrew I put some sort of Desitin on instead of lotion, LOL. My first shot of Bethlehem. Matrix at Ein Kerem. Dome of the Rock, obviously. Thursday, January 22, 2009. Who peed on me? Monday, January 19, 2009. Sunday, January 18, 2009. 18 Jan 09 Ein Kerem. Saturday, January 17, 2009. I asked a gardener there about...

emilie jerusalem: He is Risen!
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009/04/he-is-risen.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. I would like to share with you some of my thoughts and feelings about the Savior Jesus Christ. He is Risen. His influence on lives has never faltered, neither His love. Let us rejoice, not mourn the memory of a martyrs death. He opened the tomb, not to let others out, but to allow us to come in. Can you imagine what the apostles were feeling on this day? Was it still dark when Mary made her way to the tomb? How long had He been waiting for her? April 17, 2009 at 8:44 PM.

emilie jerusalem: Sahar
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009/04/sahar.html
Tuesday, April 14, 2009. Sahar is a member of the LDS church here in Jerusalem. Tonight she spoke with us about life as a Palestian and a member of the LDS church. Sahar lives in Bethlehem which is currently in the West Bank and under confines of the Israeli army. She lives in an "outdoor prison" as she is surrounded by the walls that seperate her from everyone else. I thought you may be interested to hear her story. 3 methods we can ensure we are changing:. 1 Do the Lords will no matter what. Don...

emilie jerusalem: Is it a fence? Is it a wall? No, it's a Separation Barrier
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009/03/is-it-fence-is-it-wall-no-its.html
Wednesday, March 11, 2009. Is it a fence? Is it a wall? No, it's a Separation Barrier. Today my eyes were opened from the shades of blindness I have been wearing the past few months as I learned about the Separation Wall. Police car patrolling the wall. Israel's barrier is therefore planned to be four times as long and in places twice as high as the Berlin Wall. Friends cannot be divided. Enemies should! I don't have the answers or the solution. I don't know what should be done or how we can help....

Friday, March 13, 2009. My friend Carly posted this on her blog.

Obv. not as cool as Quidditch, but still fun. 3 Mrs Norris' descendants infiltrate the area. Life'...

emilie jerusalem: Palm Sunday
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009/04/palm-sunday.html
Sunday, April 5, 2009. Being interviewed by a CBS reporter. How holy or sacred a site is depends upon the beholder,". Hundreds of Christians holding green fronds marked Palm Sunday in Jerusalem, celebrating Jesus Christ's triumphant entry into the holy city two millennia ago. It was a beautiful sight and a feeling that cannot be explained. He was born to die that we might live. April 7, 2009 at 5:53 PM. April 11, 2009 at 8:18 PM. BEAUTIFUL Emilie, just Beautiful said! Gosh i am so jealous of you!

emilie jerusalem: A long time ago in Bethlehem
http://emiliefoss.blogspot.com/2009/03/long-time-ago-in-bethlehem.html
Saturday, March 21, 2009. A long time ago in Bethlehem. Bethlehem was incredible. It was possibly may favorite day thus far. We crossed the border into the West Bank with no problem and pulled into Bethlehem. Then we heard a Palestinian activist leader guy talk about their side of the war. Two main things that I thought about:. Next we went to Bethlehem University. The constant theme I am learning on this trip is that there are two sides to every story and no one is completely right. We then went to lunch.
