It’s Friday in Jerusalem—the holiest day of the week for Muslim worshipers, many who are making their way to the Al Aqsa Mosque for prayers. Meanwhile, Jewish storeowners close up shop and begin preparations for their day of rest and worship beginning at sundown—the Saturday Shabbat. On Sunday morning, as most of the city goes back to work, the bells of Christian churches ring across Jerusalem for a third group of people who also find their spiritual roots in this holy city. Three religions, three stories of worship, as told in “A Weekend in Jerusalem.”
