And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
In Jerusalem. Years ago, I had the business trip of a lifetime to a vendor in Israel and toward the end of the trip they took us on a tour of the old city. I have picture of that same spot that's nowhere near as good a picture, but all I had was my iPhone.
That's Calvary, in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. I went to Mass on that spot, and later Mass in the Tomb. Unspeakable grace....lifechanging. Getting teared up just remembering it. He is risen!!!
Looks Orthodox -- also the way!
