Again a very successful season with a lot of dear visitors in our pilgrims' home turns towards its end. It was a real pleasure for us to receive a great number of pilgrimage groups and also individuals during their stay in the Holy Land, and our greatest reward consisted in their feeling at home with us in our house and expressing this in many different ways. This makes us extremely grateful. For example, one of the groups said good-bye by singing the following words: "Your house became our house. We enjoyed coming in and going out. We were received" we had a warm welcome - we thank you very much! May the year 2014 make us again happy with a lot of friendly and contented guests under God's blessing. We express this heart-felt wish by saying: NEXT YEAR IN JERUSALEM � A VERY WARM WELCOME!
