Israel Tour Connection, LLC (ITC) has announced its
2011 Interfaith Israel Adventure. Led by Rabbi Leonard Cahan and Pastor Jan Lookingbill, the Interfaith Israel Adventure is designed to deepen mutual respect and understanding between followers of both faiths. Rabbi Cahan and Pastor Lookingbill strive to make Israel come alive for visitors of all ages with their collective energy, knowledge, creativity, and experience.
ITC's Interfaith Israel Adventure caters to Jewish and Christian individuals, as well as interfaith couples and families. The tour connects visitors to the history, politics, and religious aspects of Israel. Moreover, the tour helps Jews and Christians to explore their roots while teaching them about the birth of both religions in the Holy Land.
ITC CEO Larry Ritter said, "The Interfaith Israel Adventure doesn't aim to convert non-Jewish participants. It encourages a mutual respect of Christian and Jewish heritage, which are connected by a common spirituality. That being said, the tour has motivated many interfaith couples and families to bring Jewish values into their homes."
The Interfaith Israel Adventure will take place from October 24 to November 8, 2011 There is a land only package available for $3095 and an air and land package for $4445. Additionally, there's an optional Eilat-Petra tour extension from November 7-11, 2011 that costs an extra $1065 per person.
