Hey! If you haven't heard...Ann and I are going to the Holy Lands and we want you to come too!
When I was only 17 years old, I had the incredible privilege of going to the Holy Land and ever since I’ve wanted to go back and lead groups there. Well, I’ve finally gotten around to doing something about it. On February 27th – March 13th, 2010, we're planning a trip to Israel and Jordan with Ya’lla Tours USA Inc.
Here are a few highlights of what we will get to do.
Visit the ruins of Caesarea, a city the book of Acts repeatedly refers to as a place where Peter journeyed.
• See Mount Carmel the site where God caused Elijah to defeat the prophets of Baal
• Take a boat ride across the Sea of Galilee
• Travel to Capernaum where Jesus preached and where His disciples made their homes
• Journey up the Mount of the Beatitudes where Jesus preached his longest and most famous Sermon on the Mount
• Visit Nazareth and experience first hand life in Galilee as in the days of Jesus
• Discover Bethany beyond the Jordan believed by some to be the actual site where Jesus was baptized
• Take a short 4X4 vehicle ride into the oasis of Wadi Rum where the movie, “Lawrence of Arabia was filmed and enjoy a Bedouin lunch with the locals
• Tour the city of Petra including horseback and walking adventures
• Swim in the Dead Sea
• Take a walking tour of the old city of Jerusalem
• Visit Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus
• Enjoy a panoramic view of Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives
As you can see, this would be the trip of a lifetime and we would love nothing more than to spend it with some of our dearest friends and partners in ministry.
