The Church of All Nations, also known as the Church or Basilica of the Agony, is a Roman Catholic church located on the Mount of Olives in East Jerusalem, next to the Garden of Gethsemane. It enshrines a section of bedrock where Jesus is said to have prayed before his arrest. This is the high altar, the rock upon which Jesus is said to have prayed. The slab is surrounded by a wrought iron wreath representing the crown of thorns. Many worshippers touch the exposed rock as they offer their own prayers to God. Credit: digitaleye/ JdeSousa
