We are clergy and lay people in the Holy Land and abroad who, in response to the exhortation of the Holy Father Benedict XVI to support Holy Land Christians and to that of Jesus when he said to Peter, "Feed my sheep," seek to encourage Holy Land Christians.

Our mission is offer encouragement and support to the people of the Holy Land. We do this by

  • educating adults and young people about the Bible and the land of the Bible
  • organizing pilgrimages in the Holy Land
  • patronizing Christian businesses in the Holy Land
  • shepherding business development in the Holy Land
  • supporting  ministries, outreach, and interreligious activities in the Holy Land
  • promoting encounters and dialogue

Our pilgrimages feature:

  • Small groups [12-25 pilgrims]
  • Visits to holy sites
  • Opportunity to enjoy a meal in the home of a local family
  • Lodging in double or private rooms with bath in guesthouses operated by Christian organizations in support of their ministries

We are a ministry of St. Thomas More Church in San Francisco, California.  Linsil Travel of San Francisco handles registration and air travel.
