Israel Trip on for Oct 17-27


Are you interested in having a life-changing experience with friends? Would you like to have your Bible reading breathe with new life? For years I resisted "Holy Land" trips because I did not like the thoughts of crowded busses, long lines, and the trinketization of sacred sites. I worship God through Jesus, not some stones or lakes. And my argument worked for years until a friend in Minnesota said "You're a good preacher Don, but you could be better if you got the dust in your shoes from the land where the Bible was written." His argument was so convincing, we went. And I was changed...to this day.
On October 17 a group of friends from Montecito Covenant Church are planning a 10 day trip to Israel through Educational Opportunities from Lakeland Florida. The cost of the trip will be around $2,000 per person. That price includes r/t air fare, all hotels, breakfasts and dinners, busses and entry fees.
The trip will include Jerusalem, Capernaum, the Dead Sea, Caesarea, Nazareth and Bethlehem. If you are interested or have questions, please contact me (Don Johnson) at church 805-969-0373 or by email donnjohnson@mac.com The deadline for a $60 ssavings per person is February 24.
