Biblical Holy Land Tour June 2023

Walking in the steps of our Master and Discovering our Jewish Roots

You are invited to tour Israel with the intention of discovering and strengthening the Jewish roots of our Christian Faith. Scripture will come alive as we study the events where they took place while expanding our understanding as historical context is presented. Once you have walked the ancient paths, the Bible comes alive as you add your own experiences. After walking in the steps of Jesus, your spiritual life will never be the same! Whether standing at the base of the Western Wall next to stones the Romans pushed off the top as they destroyed the Temple, walking through a 2700-year-old, hand-chiseled tunnel, standing in the ruins of the synagogue in Capernaum where Jesus taught, or enjoying a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee, you place yourself in the actual locations where the accounts took place. That is life-changing!

Bridges For Peace Presentations

We will not only tour both Old and New Testament sites, but we will also enjoy a special Shabbat dinner in Jerusalem, with a presentation by Robbie and Terry Mason of Bridges for Peace. In addition, we will have the opportunity to serve the Jewish community while participating in a service project arranged by Bridges for Peace.

Dates: Sunday, June 25- Wednesday, July 5, 2023
