The pastor of Holy Rosary Church in Jersey City would love to take all of his parishioners to the Holy Land, especially during the Easter season, to experience the places at the root of their Catholic faith.
With annual pilgrimages an impossibility, though, the Rev. Jerzy (Jurek) Zaslona decided to bring a piece of Jerusalem to the parish in a way by creating a walk-through tomb of Jesus inside the church.
