Come along on a special, once-in-a-lifetime
Tour of Israel with Calvary Community Church
and Pastor Mark Martin

     Whether you’ve been a Christian for days or
     for decades, the land of Israel offers an
     extraordinary opportunity to learn the Word of God right where it happened.

To stand on the very ground where Jesus walked and ministered will bring the Bible from black & white to living color!

In keeping with our commitment to communicate practical, biblical truth, we invite you to travel with us to Israel. Time and again we’ll find ourselves saying, “Now I understand what He meant when He said . . .”

We will be staying in some of Israel’s finest hotels and traveling throughout the land on luxury coaches. Luggage will be automatically transferred from coach to hotel room and back to coach by the tour company. We are taking as much work out of this tour as possible so that you can enjoy every moment of this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

I will be teaching the Word of God at several key sites such as the Garden Tomb, the Mount of Olives and the Sea of Galilee. Imagine singing the songs of our faith in the very place where the lyrics were born.

It’s amazing what happens to you when you actually walk the streets of Jerusalem and stand on the shore of the Jordan River or the Sea of Galilee. Golgotha and the Garden Tomb will create a new love for your Savior as you re-live our Lord’s crucifixion and resurrection. You will feel like you’ve come home!

If you’ve ever dreamed of touring Israel, this is an outstanding opportunity. The combination of Bible teachers, experienced guides, worship, study materials, and thoughtful planning will blend to make this journey an experience you will remember the rest of your life – and certainly every time you open your Bible!

We look forward to sharing the excitement of this amazing experience, so book your spot early while there’s still room.

Come with us to Israel, where the Bible comes to life!

Pastor Mark & Leslie Martin
