Dear Ones,
I will, once again, lead an annual pilgrimage to the Holy Land of Israel/Palestine in January of 2020. While many of my pilgrimages have been focused on clergy, this one is open to all, everyone. So, please feel free to spread the news to anyone who has ever wanted to make this life changing trip. This trip is now open for registration.
One difference in the pilgrimage this year is the optional offered extension onto Jordan, and especially the amazing site of Petra. I will be leading this extension too and this is a part of the tour I have not done before and very much look forward to taking in for the first time with you. We will have a very experienced guide with us and also the Very Rev. Dominic Barrington, Dean of St. James’ Cathedral Chicago and Director of Lightline America, our tour company, with us for this portion as well. We will be in very good hands.
You can access the brochure below. Hard copies of the pilgrimage brochures can be requested by emailing receptionist@ecww.org. Please include your name, congregation, and mailing address. In it you will find full pricing, itinerary, and many answered questions. As always if you have questions I am glad to try to answer them. A reminder to clergy who have never been, my office does have funds to help you make this trip far more affordable.
Blessings,
+Greg
Joe and I are VERY interested in the tour…..save room for us!!!
How many people are included on this tour of the Holy Land in January?
The trip is currently capped at 45, but Bishop Rickel has said that there is the potential to open up more slots.
I am very interested in going on this trip.
Please state age range for participation
Youngest age to go
Oldest age to go
(As in cut off age for retirees)
We don’t believe there is any cutoff for participation. You may want to contact the company running the pilgrimage to make sure. Their number is: 312.622.6808
I am very interested including the extension.
Great! If you’re interested, you’ll either need to download and fill out the form above, or email receptionist@ecww.org to request a hard copy of the brochure.
Thanks!
This would be a lifetime dream of mine! I’m retired on disability but would love to go nonetheless, even if I have to miss some longer walking excursions. Is there someone I could talk to about the schedule to see if this might work out?
I am also wondering, of course, if this is fully booked.
Thank you so much.
