David Zwilling, Otto Klär, and Johannes Aschauer presented the book written by Johannes Aschauer, “On the Jerusalem Way: From the Heart of Europe on Foot to Jerusalem”, to Pope Benedict XVI in the presence of Cardinal Schönborn during the Papal General Audience in Rome on Wednesday, January 25, 2012.
For the three Jerusalem pilgrims, this is another very special and extraordinary highlight of their life and pilgrimage, following their 6-month pilgrimage and arrival in Bethlehem on Christmas Eve 2010 after approximately 4,500 km on foot! This is especially true because their “people-connecting pilgrimage” followed in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul on the one hand, and on the other hand, stood under the interfaith motto for JOY – PEACE – FREEDOM.
