For Jayden:

Good day to everyone! This is Jayden Tan, reporting to you live from
Gethsemane, a garden across the Kidron Valley on the Mount of Olives in
the eastern part of Jerusalem. This is the place where Jesus was caught by
some soldiers, right after he prayed the other night. I was able to get some
pictures from the local people which we will show you later on.

The story was that Jesus came here to pray. He was very sad to know that
He would soon die on the cross. That night He was with three other disciples
whom He asked to stay awake and pray as well. After Jesus prayed by
himself, he then checked the other disciples but found them sleeping.
Instead of being upset, Jesus prayed again to God to help Him face that
difficult time.

Unfortunately, after praying, Judas came along with soldiers carrying swords.
Since the soldiers didn’t know who Jesus was, Judas came forward to kiss
Him. This was the sign that soldiers needed to know who Jesus was. Before
that happened, I was told that Judas betrayed Jesus to the soldiers in
exchange for 30 pieces of silver. Oh my! That was really sad to know that
your friend betrayed you.

I hope Judas has prayed for forgiveness for what he has done. As this is
really a sad day for all of us.

Reporting to you live from the garden of Gethsemane, this is Jayden Tan and
we will keep you updated with what’s happening here and around the globe.
