Faith-Based Travel
Pilgrimages and faith-based tours are uniquely positioned forms of travel. In our experience, the difference between someone visiting a sacred location "In the steps of..." and embarking on a spiritual journey resides in whether it is a shared experience with leadership and community or a solo journey. Ministries that travel together build and strengthen bonds that last a lifetime.
Unpacking Israel
Please take a moment to read the blog post of Amber Marie, The Introvert Group Traveler. She shares her journey to Israel and the unpacking process. Guaranteed it's worth reading whether you are strong in your faith, uncertain, or searching for reasons to reconnect or disconnect with God or your church community.
