were in Jerusalem for a pilgrimage of thanksgiving Chilean miners rescued in October after being trapped underground for 69 days. The trip was organized by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism together with the Embassy of Chile in Israel. The miners have visited the holy sites of Jesus' life and also had a meeting with Israeli President Shimon Peres. "We have received many calls - said on his arrival Tel Aviv Airport José Henriquez, one of the miners - and to us is a blessing from God
have the opportunity to be here to thank the thousands of people who prayed for us while we were trapped in the mine. We hope that this pilgrimage - Henriquez added - help us to strengthen our faith and grasp the deeper meaning of these places. "
