Why do we visit the Holy Land

A glimpse into the journey...

Walk in the Land of the Bible

Would you like to have a life-changing and never-to-be-forgotten experience? It is our joy to invite you to join us on a trip to the cradle of Christianity in the land of the Bible. Can you imagine standing where Elijah stood when God sent fire down from heaven, or walking on the shore of the Sea of Galilee where much of Jesus' ministry took place. During our tour, we'll hold a baptism service in the Jordan River, and tour the desert region, and see for ourselves what Abraham saw. We will then go up to Jerusalem, the City of God, and walk the cobblestone streets that Jesus walked on the Via Dolorosa on His way to Calvary's hill. We'll visit the Dead Sea, En-Gedi, Masada, the Holocaust Memorial and the Garden Tomb — held by many to be the site of Christ's resurrection. It will be truly AMAZING! All throughout this trip we'll pause for times of worship, prayer, scriptural application, and great fellowship. Please prayerfully consider being a part of this life-changing experience.
