Thousand of Christians march for Israel


Thousands of Christians March in Jerusalem for Israel -Patrick Moser

Thousands of Christian pilgrims from around the world marched through the streets of Jerusalem, chanting their support for Israel and praying for peace in the Holy Land.

Marching under dozens of national banners, the pilgrims made their way from a park near parliament to the gates of the Old City. Many said the annual pilgrimage, organized by the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, represented fulfillment of a biblical prophecy that all nations would gather in Jerusalem for Sukkot - the Feast of Tabernacles - which Jews celebrate this week.
