Béthanie? What a strange name !

 We have actually had one pilgrim named Bethany stay with us!

Here's what we say when pilgrims want to know where our namecame from: Béthanie is a Biblical term, and it appears multiple times to describe various locations both near and far from Jerusalem. One of these Béthanies is clearly identified as the village where Martha, Mary and Lazarus, all siblings and friends of Jesus, lived. Several passages from the gospels refer to it (references below).

What about the etymology of the term? Well, we found it could mean "the home of the fisherman" or "the home of the poor", but in the end, for us,  

Béthanie is really the home of friendship !
