A group of Muslim women visits the Custody

On 14th June, a group of Muslim women visited the seat of the Custody of the Holy Land in Jerusalem. It was a “first time” in an activity which for years has opened the doors of St Saviour’s Convent to groups and visitors of all religious confessions. The women, all from East Jerusalem, belong to the association called “Sehtak bel denia” (Your health is the most important thing) which deals with personal well-being both from the physical point of view and with cultural and recreational activities. The group was guided by fr. Alberto J. Pari, in charge of interreligious dialogue for the Custody of the Holy Land. The group visited the Curia of the Custody, where at the moment there is currently the exhibition “Memories of St Saviour,” St Saviour’s church, the friars’ refectory and the cellars.
