Experience the Holy Lands with Greentree
You’re Invited!
Sponsored by our Missions Team and hosted by Philemon Tours, this trip is sure to provide 9 days of unforgettable memories traveling through Israel to see the places of the Bible come to life. Journey with us as we will be guided through the sites by Rami Fellemon, our Greentree missions partner in Jerusalem, and taught by our very own Dr. Dan Doriani. Rami has his M.A. in Biblical History & Geography with an emphasis in Archeology and is excited to share his rich knowledge of the land, layout, and history. As our resident theologian, Dan Doriani will lead devotionals each night and provide biblical teachings that will accompany each destination along the way. Travel through the Holy Lands with 39 of your Greentree friends, and experience the settings of Scripture like you’ve never encountered before. Priority will be given to Greentree members and attenders. A deposit of $500 will be required upon signing up with final payment due on February 1, 2024. You’ll have an opportunity to purchase airfare through our group rate or you may buy your own airline ticket(s).
