2020 ISRAEL AND JORDAN TRIP OF A LIFETIME Life FormationTravel

2020 ISRAEL AND JORDAN TRIP OF A LIFETIME

Going to Israel will give you a whole new view of Jesus, the Bible and your faith. I'm not over-promising in saying that. Every one of the over 60 people who have traveled with us to the Middle East, including Jocelyn and I, came away with something more than money can buy. Jocelyn and I hope you will come with us in November 2020 for a life changing, unforgettable experience. Details and costs in this post. (more…)
