Have you ever dreamed of going to Israel?
Join Pastor and Susan Whited for an informational meeting on Tuesday, September 26 at 7:00 p.m. about the 10 day tour of the Holy Land. The trip is scheduled for October 29 – November 7, 2024. We will visit Jesus’ birthplace in Bethlehem, a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee, the Walls of Jericho and so much more. You will walk the path Jesus took from the Garden of Gethsemane to the dungeon in Caiaphas’ house, travel the Via Delarosa (way of the cross) through Jerusalem, visit the site of Jesus’ tomb and the mountain top where he ascended. It is the spiritual adventure of a lifetime. Can’t make the meeting? Call or email Pastor Chuck (716-835-2220; cwhited@firsttrinity.com). Brochures are also available at the Welcome Center.
