Join this Unforgettable Hopevale Church Israel Tour with Pastor Dan!
I want to invite you to join me in February of 2022 for the trip of a lifetime—Hopevale’s 11-day journey through Israel, the land of the Bible and the place where Jesus walked this earth. Exploring Jerusalem, boating on the Sea of Galilee, walking the shepherds field in Bethlehem, being baptized in the Jordan River, praying in the Garden of Gethsemane, sharing communion by the Garden Tomb—these experiences are more than just site-seeing, they are life-changing.
Don’t just take my word for it though. This will be our third Hopevale visit to the Holy Land and as the previous two groups will tell you, this trip will impact your life with Jesus unlike anything else you have ever experienced.
I am pleased that we will partner once again with Inspiration Cruises & Tours—they are the finest in the tour business. The accommodations will be top-notch, the food will be delicious, the laughs will be plenty, the landscape will be breathtaking, the moments will be stirring, and the memories will last forever.
So come along on this unforgettable adventure with me and get ready to see the Bible come alive for you like never before.
Can’t wait,
Pastor Dan
