Come join us for a life-changing trip to Israel. Visiting biblical lands is far more significant than a vacation – it is an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of God’s Word!

Experience the historical roots of our faith as we follow the footsteps of Jesus. Visit the places from the Gospels, see the sites of the prophets, stand on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and walk the streets of Jerusalem.

We will enjoy some amazing times of worship and prayer throughout our time together. To see the Bible come alive is more powerful than words can describe. Do not miss this opportunity for a spiritual journey of a lifetime!

Shalom,
Pastors Tim & Kari Thompson
Pastors LaNora & Jody Morin

This 12-day itinerary has been prayerfully and thoughtfully crafted to guide you through some of the most sacred, inspiring, and spiritually rich biblical sites in the land of Israel. Over the course of this journey, you’ll have the extraordinary opportunity to explore locations deeply rooted in Scripture—places where the stories of our faith unfolded and where the life, ministry, and message of Jesus Christ took shape.

From the shores of the Sea of Galilee to the rugged wilderness of Judea, from ancient ruins to vibrant modern cities, each day offers powerful moments of discovery, reflection, and worship. You’ll walk where the prophets walked, stand where miracles happened, and see the Bible come to life with new depth and clarity.

This is far more than a tour—it’s a spiritual pilgrimage that will strengthen your faith, deepen your understanding of God’s Word, and create lifelong memories. As you journey with fellow believers, be prepared to be inspired, encouraged, and forever changed by your time in the land of the Bible.
