50th anniversary of the meeting between Pope Paul VI and Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras.
Women pray at the Stone of Unction, or Stone of Anointing, representing where the body of Jesus was prepared for burial after the crucifixion in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem's Old City March 28. During his pilgrimage to the Holy Land May 24-26, Pope Francis will hold an ecumenical meeting at the church to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the meeting between Pope Paul VI and Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras.
