A TriBase Group tour of the Holy Land

Led by the TriBase Group

Saturday 2nd - Saturday 9th March 2024

After the success of our exciting 2022 Holy Land Encounter Tour, we propose to return to Israel and Palestine again in early March 2024.

We will be a diverse group drawn from across our TriBase Community comprising Mildenhall, Feltwell, Lakenheath and supporting churches, seeking to:

1. Learn more about the Lord Jesus Christ.

2. Connect with, appreciate more and learn from the “living Stones” ministering in the Land today including, Jews, Muslims, Christians, Israeli Jewish followers of Jesus and Palestinian Christians.

3. Appreciate the cultural, social, and political context in which Jesus the Messiah birthed his mission.

4. Return home more informed and better equipped to serve our communities.

This will be a fast moving 8 days 7 nights programme visiting Jerusalem including ,The Western Wall, King David’s Tomb, House of the Last Supper, Gethsemane, Calvary/ Holy Sepulchre, the Pool of Bethesda, the site of the Resurrection and so much more. The OLD City of Jerusalem revered and fought over and prized for over 3000 years will not disappoint.

We will also visit the birth place of Jesus and the Cave of Jerome in Bethlehem.

We will gaze over the world’s oldest city in the Plains of Jericho from the foot of the Mount of Temptation before travelling on to the baptismal site of Jesus.

We then continue to the home of the Dead Sea scrolls at Qumran. There will even be an opportunity to float on the Dead Sea if desired.

In Nazareth we will visit not only the magnificent church of the Annunciation but the early home of Joseph’s family and the synagogue from which Jesus was ejected.

We will step into ancient Capernaum, where Jesus healed and preached and then sail on Galilee where the apostles fished.

We will sleep in USAF Security approved hotels. Our professional guides are well known to our Leader John Drake from Boundary Breakers Ltd, who visits the land three times a year.

This programme is not only designed to inform but also to challenge much of our thinking.
