And possibly best yet…….

·         Christian travel encompasses and supports all your other ministries              (Bible study, worship, evangelism, education on the Christian faith, social activities, small groups, hospitality, etc.)

·         From the Old Testament to the New Testament, from the Biblical lands to Abraham and Pope John Paul II, from 4000 BC to present day, from Mt. Sinai where Moses received the Ten Commandments to the missionary journeys of the Apostle Paul to the healing water of Lourdes can be part of your Christian Travel Ministry. 

·         The religious travel is combined with the wonderful traditional sites and activities of each destination.  In Egypt explore the Pyramids, in Jordan see Petra’s famed Treasury from the movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, in Germany cruise the Rhine River, in Scotland look for the mysterious Loch Ness Monster, in England see Stonehenge, and in Ireland feast at an Irish banquet in a castle. 

By offering your members a travel option you will have the opportunity to travel together as a community to the Christian and heritage sites of Europe, the Biblical lands, or even places such as Hawaii, the Canadian Rockies, or in the footsteps of faith-based movies including Narnai or The Passion of the Christ. Only your church or organization can offer such unique and faith-filled experiences of faith and fellowship to your members. 

As faith-based travel is the heart and highlight of any Christian Travel Ministry program, there are many more activities that can also be included in this special ministry:

·         Hosting Biblical and Christian travel shows and guest speakers

·         Group showings of faith-based travel films and documentaries

·         Hosting internationally-themed social nights (e.g. international potluck dinner night)

·         Reading books on Biblical and Christian heritage sites

·         Small groups for sharing travel experiences
