Just like that, we are back in the USA. What an amazing trip, its honestly difficult to try and take it all in now that it Is over. We all shared so many amazing experiences, spiritual insights and have some life changing memories to reflect back on. In our last day in Jerusalem, we visited the Mount...

It’s sad to think that our time here in Israel is coming to an end but incredible to think back on all we’ve seen and done. We still have 1 full day left after today and tons more to see in Jerusalem. Today we began our day at the western wall. At the base of the Temple Mount, thousands of...

Jerusalem is such an amazing city. The culture, diversity and the history all blend together making for one of the most incredible cities on earth. Today we had the opportunity to explore both within and outside of the walls of the Old City. We began the day by touring the Temple Mount. Today, the...

Today we woke to a Jerusalem sunrise and after a great breakfast at the Gloria hotel, we loaded the bus and headed out to the surrounding hills. Our first stop today was Yad Hashmonah. At this site we saw some very well kept gardens and learned about the role of the threshing floor, a concept often referred...

It’s Monday and despite what many people may say about Mondays… today was really fun. We said goodbye to our Galilean kibbutz and left for for the coastal region. We began our day by visiting Beit She’ean, later to be known as Scytopolis, an incredible city that now lies in ruin. Coming...
To choose to follow Jesus

Our tour continued today beginning with a boat trip across the Sea of Galilee. It continues to be an incredible experience to walk and participate in the places Jesus did a majority of his miracles (70%). While on the boat, we worshipped together with songs led by Daniel, a local boat captain/worship...
Walking the shoreline

It was another amazing day in the region of Galilee. The morning began with a hike to the top of Mount Arbel which holds an incredible panoramic view of where Jesus spent the majority of his life and ministry. From here, you can clearly see the cities of Magdala and Capernaum where we would later visit....
Who do you say that I am

Today we had the opportunity to explore the Galilee region of the Golan Heights. The Golan Heights is a beautiful part of the country, mainly because we were out of the heat of the desert, but the steep hills and fertile green lands were quite stunning as well. I’m slightly joking but to be...

Each day in Israel thus far has been fast paced and packed with amazing sites; today was no different. Today was HOT! Despite the heat, we managed to hit 4 sites and even snuck in a needed coffee stop. We began the day by saying goodbye to our hotel by the Dead Sea, packed our stuff in the bus and...

It was another action packed day for the Israel team as we hit multiple sites today in our journey. We began with an amazing breakfast buffet which included shakshuka (an Israeli breakfast staple) as well as many fresh fruits, vegetables, fresh breads and so much more. The food here has proven to...
Wasting no time!

The team left American soil bright and early as they begin their journey to the Holy Land. We arrived all together in Tel Aviv this morning around 10 a.m.. At least I think it was morning, it’s hard to keep track of these things when you’re running on about 4 hours of airplane sleep! Once...
