GUATEMALA

GateWay Church’s, seasoned missionary, Doris Hang, traveled to Guatemala in June with a HarvestNet Institute team. Once in Guatemala they attended a conference on “teamwork & teambuilding” at Casa de Dios, a church in Guatemala City with about 25,000 in their congregation; went to the headquarters of Help for Orphans and Widows Worldwide (HOWW) Ministry and spent several days with pastors from HOWW ministering to children in poor areas of the city.

ISRAEL

May 19-20, 2009

 

Join Steve and Sylvia Neptune, HarvestNet Institute teachers, students, friends and families (with a professional guide and driver provided by Pilgrim Tours), as we embark on a life-changing adventure.

     We are going to begin our journey experiencing the Mediterranean coast; then venture inland to the breathtaking Galilee region; travel south to desert places, then head up to Jerusalem, thus experiencing a pilgrimage in the Holy Land.

 

What makes this tour special?

 

We have interspersed ministry opportunities in the itinerary of this tour. We have allowed time for scripture reading, some teachings, prayer, spontaneous singing and quiet reflection; while still filling our days visiting significant places.  We have scheduled ministry leaders, who live in Israel, to join us and share their vision for Israel and also their experiences of what is like to live in Israel as believers in Jesus (Yeshua).

     Our desire is to experience Israel on a physical, spiritual and emotional level; praying in advance for each ‘pilgrim’ to have personal encounters with the Lord.  We are confident that He will surprise us in unexpected ways.

Unique Ministry Opportunities

 

-Speak and/or read scripture in a location of your choice.  (Sign-up will be available, on a first come basis, when you submit your registration and deposit.*

-Lead and/or actively participate in worship on the beach at The Sea of Galilee where we will sing, pray and share communion.

-Hear special speakers; believers living in Israel, share about the spiritual environment in Israel. 

-Engage in times of intercessory prayer in various locations including The Western Wall.
