A worker removes notes containing prayers and messages which were left by visitors, from the cracks between the stones of the Western Wall, Judaism's holiest prayer site, in the Old City of Jerusalem, Israel, on September 17, 2017. The clean-up which takes place ahead of the upcoming Jewish New Year Holiday, clears the wall's crevices and frees up space for more notes that people of all faiths slip between its stones, believing that requests deposited at the site are more likely to be heard by God.
