Your pilgrimage begins as you depart the USA on an overnight flight. You will be welcomed at the Tel Aviv airport by our representative and transferred to your hotel to enjoy dinner before retiring for the night.
Day 3 - The Galilee
Worship as you sail across the Sea of Galilee. Visit Capernaum, the center of Jesus' ministry in the Galilee, and visit the synagogue built on the site where Jesus taught. Explore the Church of the Loaves and Fish at Tabgha. See the Chapel of the Primacy.
Day 4 - Cana, Nazareth, Tel Megiddo & Caesarea
Visit the Franciscan Wedding Chapel in Cana, the site of Jesus' first miracle, before continuing on to Nazareth, Jesus' boyhood home. Look out over Tel Megiddo to view one of the most important archeological sites in Israel. The last stop will be Caesarea, where an angel visited Cornelius.
Day 5 - Bet Shean, Jericho, & Qumran
Start in Bet Shean, a city continuously inhabited for over 5,000 years. See colonnaded streets with marble sidewalks, Roman public baths, and a theater. Stop in Jericho to view the ruins of the city and view the traditional site of the Temptation of Jesus. Continue to Quran, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in 1947.
Day 6 - Bethlehem & Jerusalem
In Bethlehem, visit the cave revered as Jesus' birthplace and see the Church of the Nativity constructed over the site. View Shepherds' Field before returning to Jerusalem. Explore the poignant exhibits of Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust Memorial.
Day 7 - Jerusalem & the City of David
Begin your day with a group picture taken from the Mount of Olives, where Jesus ascended into heaven. Walk the Palm Sunday Road and pray in the Garden of Gethsemane. Continue to Mount Zion to visit the House of the High Priest Caiaphas. Mediate on the events of the Last Supper as you visit the traditional location of the Upper Room. After Lunch, wander through the excavations of the City of David. Explore Hezekiah's Tunnel. Visit the Pool of Siloam, recently uncovered at the foot of the city.
Day 8 - Leisure Day (Masada/Dead Sea Options)
Today, you have free time to explore on your own or you may choose to visit Masada and the Dead Sea (additional charge). Ascend by cable car to Masada, which became the last stronghold of the Jewish Zealots against the Romans. You can still look down on the remains of the Roman camps and the siege ramp below. End your day with a dip in the salt and mineral-laden waters of the Dead Sea.
Day 9 - Jerusalem & the Old City
Explore ancient Jerusalem at the Teaching Steps and the Western Wall. View the Pool of Bethesda, where Jesus performed the Sabbath miracle. Sing a hymn in the Church of St. Anne and experience its rich acoustics. Visit Herod's Antonia Fortress, where Jesus appeared before Pontius Pilate, and follow in Christ's steps on the Via Dolorosa. At the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, take time to reflect on His Sacrificial love. Visit the Garden Tomb for a time of reflection and communion.
