Come walk the land with us
Open the Bible where it happened
On Sunday mornings we read about these places a chapter at a time. In November 2027 we get to stand in them. Over ten days we will travel from the Mediterranean coast up to the Sea of Galilee, down the Jordan Valley to the Dead Sea, and on to Jerusalem and Bethlehem, opening the Scriptures at each stop.
Along the way you can be baptized in the Jordan River, worship in a boat on the Sea of Galilee, stand on the steps Jesus climbed on His way to the Temple, and close the trip together with communion at the Garden Tomb.
This is Hope Chapel’s first trip to Israel. The more of us who go, the lower the cost for everyone, so bring a friend.
