An 8-day Greece and Turkey Tour and Cruise led by Pastor Jerry
August 22 to 29, 2012
We embark on our journey to the lands of ancient treasures and Christian history with an overnight British Airways flight to Athens, Greece. Prepare yourself for a life-changing experience as we walk where the apostles walked.
We’ll tour exciting Athens, including visits to the Acropolis, the Parthenon and Mars Hill, where Paul preached to the Gentiles. Our luxury hotel is located in the shadow of the Acropolis with a spectacular view of the lighted Parthenon at night.
We cruise to ancient Ephesus for a fabulous tour of this once thriving city of 250,000 where Paul lived and preached for two years and where John and Timothy also preached the Gospel of Jesus. We’ll walk the actual streets these apostles walked and we’ll view the Basilica of St. John, believed to be the site of the grave of John.
Then we sail to the isle of Patmos where we’ll visit the Monastery of St. John and the Cave of the Apocalypse, considered by many the location where John received the Revelation of Jesus.
We continue cruising to the Aegean isle of Mykonos and then Santorini, perhaps the most breathtaking of all the Greek islands, before returning to Athens.
We’ll next visit the ancient city of Corinth, where Paul lived and preached, and enjoy a devotional time in the midst of the ruins of the Church of Corinth, where we will surely enhance our love and understanding of I and II Corinthians.
