Covid Announcement Until further notice, we will be following all COVID guidelines. Participants will be required to show proof that they are fully vaccinated. We are in ongoing conversation with our tour company in Palestine. Michel Awad, Siraj Center's director, is a member of the Palestinian Tourism Task Force on the country's opening to tourism and monitoring of COVID conditions. Michel is also a member of the coordination team with the Israeli tourism authority. You can read about the rigorous program in which Palestinian hotels, guides, drivers and restaurants are participating ( www.jahzeen.ps ) as they have reopened to group travel. We and Siraj Center offer a full land package refund up to sixty days before each pilgrimage. In addition, because we discourage participants from purchasing tickets for their flights before that date -- to ensure that the trip is a go -- we are confident about the decision we will make.

Alternative (responsible) travel seeks to transform curious tourists into informed pilgrims by engaging the people who live in the land — and the history, culture and social realities that shape their lives.

You're invited to join Philips Theological Seminary students and their professor, Dr. Kathy McCallie, on their immersive tour of Palestine and Israel. You'll see from the itinerary that the program is very similar to the Wrights' annual pilgrimages. And you won't have to do the preparation homework!

As the tour title suggests, many of the first-century conditions that shaped Jesus' life and ministry continue to shape the lives of Palestinians and Israelis today. In addition to exploring the holy stones — the historic places and sites that have defined our faith — participants will engage the Living Stones: Jews, Muslims and Christians who live in the land.

Experienced tour leaders Jeff & Janet Wright have served as short-term Mission Co-Workers to Israel/Palestine through the Disciples of Christ/UCC Global Ministries, having traveled there many times. Janet is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Working near Bethlehem, she and colleagues created an all-Arab training team in EMDR . Jeff is recently retired as lead pastor of Heart of the Rockies Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) located in Fort Collins, Colorado. The tour will be accompanied by a professional, local guide.

To facilitate conversation, take advantage of unplanned opportunities and provide a more enriching experience, tour size is limited to around two dozen persons. Participants will: explore the holy sites of Bethlehem, Jerusalem and Nazareth (where Jesus was raised); visit the Abrahamic mosque and divided city of Hebron; tour Jericho, the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River and more; learn from Global Ministries mission partners; meet and discuss differing perspectives on the current political situation with Muslim, Christian and Jewish leaders. Some meetings on the itinerary are subject to change due to speakers' availability and other conditions; substitutions of similar interest and quality are made.

Travel arrangements have been made through the award winning Siraj Center for Holy Land Studies . Overnight accommodations are clean, comfortable and modest, booked to maximize our contact with the Living Stones and make the tour more affordable. Past tour participants have rated the tour experience very highly. Cost of the 2022 tour is $2,830 (based on twenty participants, double occupancy, excluding airfare).

Highlights - christian jerusalem jesus tour, availability, pickup places and prices, what to expect - christian jerusalem jesus tour.

On this Christian Jerusalem tour, you can follow in the footsteps of Jesus and visit sites where major Biblical events took place. The tour starts on the Mt. of Olives at the Church of the Ascension where Jesus ascended to heaven leaving an imprint of his foot in a slab of stone. A 4th-century chapel once stood here but today we see a Crusader-era chapel. The Jerusalem tour stops at the nearby Church of the Pater Noster. Here Christ taught his disciples the Lord’s Prayer. Plaques cover the walls bearing the Lord’s Prayer in multiple languages. We see the original place where Jesus taught his disciples. We descend the Mount of Olives taking in the views of a 3,000-year-old Jewish cemetery and the Old City across the Kidron Valley. We make a brief stop at the Dominus Flevit a teardrop-shaped chapel designed by Barluzzi to mark the site where Jesus looked out over Jerusalem and wept. The tour visits the magnificent Church of All Nations and the adjacent Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus prayed and was arrested on the eve of his crucifixion. Crossing the Kidron Valley the tour enters the Old City through the Lion’s Gate. We can see the Pools of Bethesda where Jesus cured a paralytic. The Christian Jerusalem tour visits the Church of St. Anne built above the site of Mary’s birth. We visit the Convent of the Sisters of Zion and see the Second Temple Era water cisterns and engraved Roman flagstones. Here Pilate judged and sentenced Jesus who took up his cross and walked through the jeering crowds along the Via Dolorosa to Calvary and his crucifixion. The Jerusalem tour retraces a part of Jesus' route along the Via Dolorosa through the Old City pausing at the 3d Station of the Cross. This Jerusalem walking tour in the footsteps of Jesus will be a unique spiritual experience for every visitor!
