A group of pilgrims on an excursion to the Mount of the Beatitudes near Lake Tiberias, where Jesus is said to have delivered the Sermon on the Mount. The village of Taybeh, which lies 15 km northeast of Jerusalem and 12 km northeast of Ramallah, is the last entirely Palestinian Christian town in the West Bank. And the Mauddi family have erected ten tents in the middle of their farmland here.
“Pilgrimages have become mass tourism. The groups only go to the major holy places, without taking time to meet the living stones – the local Christians,” regrets Muaddi, who wants to complete the experience of the tents with proposals for hikes, introductions to agriculture and local heritage. Jerusalem, the city that is called “holy” by the three monotheistic religions, already tried to become the standard bearer for an ethical pilgrimage back in 2013. A conference called “Green Pilgrimage Jerusalem” was organised that year. It was driven by the conviction that religions have a responsibility in educating people to live more simply and soberly. And that decisions motivated by faith are the most sustainable.
