PASTORS ISRAEL FAM TOUR February 25 March 6, 2017 Visit Israel You ll Never be the Same! The Bible and sermons will come to life as you recall the sites you saw with your own eyes and touched with your own hands! The remarkable people of Israel will be etched in your mind forever. Dear Pastor,
We would like to personally invite you to join us for an amazing trip to Israel a trip packed with unforgettable, life-changing experiences! We are looking forward to bringing you to this unique land the very cradle of our Christian faith. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience spiritual growth and create lifelong memories in the Holy Land, where you will walk where Jesus walked and see prophecy fulfilled right before your eyes! Considerable planning has gone into this trip to provide the ultimate experience at the lowest possible cost. Don t miss out! Blessings, Joan Peace BENEFITS TO CHURCH LEADERS: Spiritual Restoration: Countless pastors attest to a personal spiritual revival and renewed passion for the Lord uniquely kindled from leading a group to the Holy Land. Transformed teaching and sermons: Pastors and teachers find they deliver more powerful sermons upon returning home. The Bible came alive when they actually saw the sites they spoke about, tangibly understood the importance of the location and geography they read about for years, experienced first-hand the customs and culture that are generally foreign to the western mindset, and touched the very stones the Bible describes. Unparalleled inspiration and education occur when teaching a biblical passage in the very place the words were spoken! Increased connection and trust with congregation: Christian travel with your church is the ultimate spiritual retreat. Deep interpersonal bonds are formed between the shepherd and the sheep from this once-in-a-lifetime experience! BENEFITS TO CHURCH MEMBERS: Transformed faith: A trip to the Holy land is life-changing! The pilgrimage will transform souls spiritually and build faith in a way no other experience can! Individuals come home with a greater love and understanding of their bibles, a renewed passion for Christ, and deepened prayer lives. Increased Biblical Knowledge: Church members will have increased understanding and recall of the scriptures because they have actually seen the settings of the Bible stories they ve heard for years. The Bible, sermons, Christmas, and Easter are never the same again. Each one comes to life upon recalling the Biblical sites touched with their own hands and seen with their own eyes! Ministry Inspiration: Church leaders are strengthened in their own spiritual walk and new leaders emerge. Those who may have been hesitant to teach or serve in the church often return home with a whole new motivation. Some even feel called to go into the ministry or missions work. Deepened Interpersonal Bonds: Spending extended time in close fellowship traveling, connected by a shared spiritual experience, results in lasting ties within the body of believers. New bonds are created, while existing bonds are strengthened. PASTORS ISRAEL FAM TOUR
