OUR DESTINATIONS

Explore the places that are steeped in Christian history. The good news begins with the Annunciation of Mary in Nazareth, in the region of Galilee, and where Jesus spent his childhood. Envision the early days of Jesus’ ministry in Capernaum. Sail on the Sea of Galilee and see the “Jesus boat” as you recall the miracles of Jesus walking on water and calming the storms.

Renew your baptismal vows at Yardenit on the River Jordan as you picture Jesus’s own baptism by John. Retrace the 14 Stations of the Cross through Via Dolorosa in the Old City of Jerusalem, the route where Jesus walked as He carried the cross on the way to His crucifixion at Calvary Hill/Golgotha. Experience a sacred moment at the Garden Tomb where Jesus was buried and resurrected from. Imagine the Ascension of Jesus into Heaven at the Mount of Olives and see the grotto associated with His teaching of the Lord’s Prayer.

In Egypt, you will walk where “Moses walked” as he led the Israelites during the Exodus and visit Mount Sinai where he received the 10 Commandments. Travel to Mount Nebo in Jordan where God showed Moses the promised land.

Continue your biblical journey as you trace the path of St. Paul through Greece and Turkey. Paul expanded the message of Jesus in Asia Minor through four Missionary Journeys and founded several churches there. From a persecutor to a Christian, St. Paul is considered as one of the most significant Christian missionaries in history. Known as the Apostle of the Gentiles, many books in the New Testament were also attributed to Paul through his epistles.

For most people, a Holy Land pilgrimage is a “once in a lifetime” experience to fully-visualize the scriptures that they have read and heard about.

As we walk where Christ and the Apostles walked, perhaps we too will experience our own “life-changing” encounters on the roads of the ancient lands of the Scriptures.
