SPECIAL EVENTS
A Peacemaker’s Pilgrimage to the Holy Land
In Janury of 2019, Richrd Blackburn led a group on a “peacemaker’s pilgrimage to the Holy Land.” They visited many sacred sites, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, and the the Sea of Galilee. In order to learn firsthand about modern tensions in this volatile region, they also visited non-government organizations devoted to defending the rights of all Israelis — whether they be Christian, Jew, or Palestinian -— and to providing assistance such as food, health care, and legal representation.
Visit the Pilgrimage to the Holy Land events page for more information about this amazing journey. Plans to host another trip are indefinite at this time, so please check back on this page for updates.
