It is because of this religious signifcance that sites all around Jordan have been designated as pilgrimage sites and have been visited by Pope John Paul VI, Pope John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis within the past half century. As a land dedicated to religious coexistence, the country of Jordan maintains these religious sites for the use of pilgrims from all around the world. 1 Jordan’s Religious Legacy Today I am in Jordan, a land familiar to me from the Holy Scriptures – a land sanctifed by the presence of Jesus Himself, by the presence of Moses, Elijah and John the Baptist; and of saints and martyrs of the early Church. Yours is a land noted for its hospitality and openness to all. Pope John Paul II during his Jubilee Pilgrimage in 2000 Pope John Paul VI Pope John Paul II at Mount Nebo Pope Benedict XVI at the Baptism site Pope Francis 2 Baptism Site/ Bethany Beyond the Jordan The Bible narrates that people used to travel from Jerusalem and Yahuda and from the countries bordering Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist.
