Whether you are visiting for spiritual reflection, historical exploration, or simply to enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape, Ein Karem offers a profound sense of peace and reverence.

In this tranquil village, one can almost hear the echoes of the Magnificat and the words of Zechariah, finding a sacred connection to both past and present. It remains a place where Christian believers can walk in the footsteps of biblical figures, contemplate the divine acts that shaped their faith, and embrace the enduring legacy of God’s work in the world.

For Christians around the world, Thursday marks the Feast of the Ascension, known as the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord, and is a great feast that marks the bodily Ascension of Jesus Christ into heaven.

The feast is traditionally celebrated on a Thursday, the fortieth day after Easter. This year, the celebration comes on May 9.
According to the Book of Acts, the Ascension took place on the Mount of Olives, next to Jerusalem. "This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven." Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives [...] (Acts 1:11-12)" It was after this that the site was then called the Mount of Ascension.

Happy Ascension Day! May the ascended Lord’s blessings shower upon you and your loved ones.
