 Macedonia Christian Church Israel Tour

 

October 25-November 3, 2010

$2999.00 from Cincinnati

Dear Friends,

My trip to Israel ranks as one of the two greatest spiritual moments of my life.

I cannot describe what it is like to stand on Mt. Carmel and think about fire falling down from Heaven. As we look at the Mediterranean we see the port of Joppa where Jonah made his run for it and the remains of Herod’s Palace in the sea at Caesarea. Caesarea is where Peter preached to Cornelius, and where Paul was imprisoned for two years before being sent to Rome.

Think about spending the night along the shores of the Sea of Galilee and looking to the hills as the lights come alive and remember Jesus' words, " A city on a hill cannot be hidden." I am still amazed that I can say I have stood in the sea that Jesus and Peter walked on, and calmed during a storm. Imagine sitting in the synagogue where Jesus taught and strolling through the seaside village of Capernaum where He lived.

You will be amazed as we float in the Dead Sea and ascend to the mountain fortress of Masada. And then there is Jerusalem... Imagine sitting on the southern steps of the Temple Mount and reading Jesus teachings. Imagine walking among the olive trees on the Mount of Olives and envisioning Jesus praying before His arrest. Be prepared for an awe inspiring moment as you take communion at the Garden Tomb.

There is so much more you will see and experience on this life changing, faith affirming journey. Please prayerfully consider joining Cathy and me on an amazing adventure in Israel.

For Zion's Sake,    
Mark and Cathy Dunn

To Our Regular and Visiting Congregation
 

We are glad you chose to worship with us today.  Our desire is that you join us in giving worship and praise to our Lord, Jesus Christ and to our Heavenly Father.  Please feel free to participate in every part of the service.  Our Communion Service, which is served every Sunday to remember Jesus, is available for all Christians.  Partake of the bread and juice as they are passed, or hold them and partake on your own when you are ready. 

If you are visiting today, please complete a silent roll card found in each pew, so that we may have a record of your visit, and acknowledge it in some way. At the end of most services we offer an invitation for any of a number of possible decisions:

  • For those who want to publicly state their faith and be baptized into Christ;

  • For those who want to rededicate their lives to the service of the Lord;

  • For those believers who have already been baptized and wish to place their membership here with the Macedonia congregation;

  • For those who desire to have counseling and prayer.

If you would like to make one of these decisions, please walk up to the front while we are singing the invitation hymn, immediately following the sermon.  You will be met and assisted by our minister.  If you would just like more information about one of these areas, please call Pastor Mark Dunn at 859-489-3866.
