The State of Israel welcomes Pope Benedict XVI to the Holy Land this week, when he visits holy sites throughout the region.  On his trip to Israel, the Pope has meetings scheduled with the President and Prime Minster, but he will also minister to the region’s Christian faithful.

In conjunction with the visit, the Israeli Consulate in New York has released a Facebook application that will allow users to encounter the sites of Israel firsthand and share their knowledge with friends.  Enjoy!
