We're going to Israel - April 10-19, 2023

walk in the footsteps of jesus

Join Pastor Carrie for a life-changing trip as we travel together to Israel!

Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to witness the events of the Gospels? Imagine being in the boat with the disciples on the Sea of Galilee when Jesus spoke to the storm or standing on the Mount of Olives beside a weeping Jesus. Although going back in time is not possible, you can go where the events of the Bible took place - the Holy Land.

A Holy Land Experience will:

Bring the Bible to life
Inspire passionate faith & Christian living
Enrich preaching and teaching
Energize the call to ministry
Enhance knowledge and understanding of the contemporary culture and issues

Upcoming Conversations

September 2022 - April 2023

Whether you are an armchair traveler or packing your bags to travel with Pastor Carrie to the Holy Land you’ll want to join us for this enlightening series of conversations. These 11 conversations will cover topics as diverse as God leading the Israelites to the promised land, a better understanding of the Jewish faith and what life is like in Israel and Palestine.
