Journey...

Testimonies from recent participants of the 2017 Holy Land Tour

I have been on many ‘trips’ and vacations before…This time was not a trip but a true ‘journey’ that gave me a glimpse into the life of Jesus as He lived on Earth.…This was a journey that I wish everyone could have the opportunity to participate in.

I learned to love Jesus more after visiting where He was born, raised, ministered, and saved souls. I wish soon to take my children and grandchildren on the same trip with Steve.

Friday, March 16 – Caesarea Maritima – Galilee

salvation. We will visit the site of the Herodian Harbor, Pilate’s house, the stadium, and the aqueduct. Next, it’s on to the Jezreel Valley to Tel Megiddo, the inspiration for James Michener’s “The Source.” Archaeological digs reveal over 20 layers of civilization, including fortifications of King Solomon and the water tunnel of King Ahab. Megiddo provides a magnificent view of the fertile Jezreel Valley, prophesied site of Armageddon, located at the crossroads of the ancient Via Maris. We will drive through the rolling hills of Galilee and visit Nazareth Village, a re-creation of a working farm and Galilean village as it may have been 2,000 years ago. It’s truly a window into the life of Jesus, Nazareth’s most famous citizen. We will enjoy a special lunch at Nazareth Village.

part of Golan. Continue to the Golan/Syria border, which offers a view of the road to Damascus and Mt. Hermon. View the Valley of Tears and return to Tiberias where you will have the opportunity to be baptized in the Jordan River, and then on to dinner and overnight at the U Hotel by Fattal.
