In the Upper Room Jesus gave us 4 sacraments, Eucharist, Holy Orders, Confession and Confirmation. The exact location of this building is not known although there is an "upper rooom" chapel which is controlled by the Muslims. Christians are welcome to come to pray there. Pope John Paul II visited there and left this brass olive tree. It has 33 branches sprouting from the sturdy trunk of the tree, a symbol of the new life of the new covenant in Jesus.
