Palestine Development Initiative:
Pilgrimage and Tourism
Visiting Israel and Palestine is a transformational experience, enriching understandings of Biblical history, Scripture and the conflict that affects lives of Palestinians and Israelis. In the face of political uncertainties and religious conflicts, our church partners are urging us ever more strongly to deepen our commitment and involvement with them through visits. Well-organized trips provide opportunities for establishing ongoing partnerships as well as income for those working in the travel and tourism industry, a mainstay of local economies.
Coming soon: “Top 10 Questions” to ask before you go on a trip to the Holy Land.
Coming soon: Contacts for organizations that facilitate trips emphasizing connections with the local Christian community as well as Israeli and Palestinian peacemakers. |
