Many pilgrims and visitors find themselves full of awe and amazement within the spaces and places tradition marks as worthy of veneration. 

Maybe it’s centuries of tradition or the millions of pilgrims who have been here. Maybe it’s an ethereal resonance with our inner piety. Maybe it’s a shaft of sunlight piercing the dim interior of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Maybe it is all these things.

For now though, it’s enough to say that this is a holy space.
