US Vice President Mike Pence spent his last afternoon in Israel at the Western Wall in Jerusalem’s Old City. The vice president and his wife Karen Pence prayed at Judaism’s holy site.
Asked by reporters how he felt about his visit to the Western Wall, the vice president said he felt “inspired.”
Before they began their prayer, the couple received an explanation about the site and its importance to the Jewish people.
A special tent was erected in the Western Wall prayer plaza. The site was closed off to enable Pence and his delegation privacy during prayers.
Also in attendance were US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman and US Mideast Envoy Jason Greenblatt.
These are the days of Moshiach.The Rebbe MHM is smiling big time😆👍
The gentiles will help the Jews fulfil their shlichus before Moshiach comes, and you see it.
A real friend of the Jews!!!!
Wow that is so special unbelievable amazing Mike Pence G-d bless you and your wife we want Moshiach now
How refreshing & inspiring to have a president and vice president who stand with and respect the Jewish people. They should only have continued success and support from every Jew!
The Vice President, following the lead of the President, praying at the Kotel is the true recognition of Am Yisroel’s eternal bond to Eretz Yisroel and Yerushalaim. Even more than the recognition of moving the embassy.
