“I’m not a Christian, but I think this is a very good place, even for atheists, to learn a little of the history of the Holy Land. The Visitor Center is very complete in the sense that we can learn about the political organization and the Jews that lived here in that time”

Soprattutto al termine di un pellegrinaggio il Visitor Center offre una serie di strumenti per una sintesi del cammino percorso. Strumenti tecnologici d’avanguardia permettono di riprendere, secondo un percorso teologicamente studiato, il cammino appena percorso per approfondire e puntualizzare il messaggio evangelico contestualizzato nel tempo e nella geografia. Veramente utile e prezioso mancava in Terra Santa un centro così attrezzato e aggiornato per accompagnare il pellegrino nella comprensione delle Scritture in riferimento a Cristo.Fr. Francesco Ielpo, Italia
