A Jerusalem Inspired Afternoon of Art & Ideas

BYU Jerusalem Center Alumni

An opportunity to join with others who love Jerusalem. Come for inspiration and to discover more about your connections to this special land

Oak Hills Stake Center

Come remember Jerusalem while learning from:Dr. Kerry Muhlestein: Covenant, Connection, and the Promised LandMany of us have felt a connection to the Holy Land that we can’t fully explain. As we learn more and more about the connecting power of covenants, we may come to better understand this feeling. However, it should not stop there. Our deepening identities as covenant keepers and our connection to the land should also help us connect more and more with our covenant family, past and present. This can help make the scriptures become even more powerful for us. Increasing our covenant consciousness can help make our past experience in the Holy Land continue to yield spiritual blessings to us even as we live in a different Promised Land.Dr. Jenet Erickson: Thirty Years Later, Returning Once Again: Why the Jerusalem Center Experience only Grows in Power and Meaning over TimeThe experience we have as students is so profound, we may be unsure of its power to mean the same to us over time. Returning 30 years later, I found in &quot;coming home&quot; that its meaning had only increased. More life experience gave deeper understanding to the truths glimpsed years before: the sure reality of our covenant identity, the purpose of pain, our covenant belonging to one another, the unspeakable gift of His glorious Resurrection, and so many others.Jim Welch: Listen to the music of Jerusalem by the entertaining and accomplished professional organist and recent service volunteer at the Jerusalem Center.
