Join Us in Israel – May 2023!
To explore the land of Israel is a spiritual experience that will forever change the way you encounter God’s Word. The Scriptures come alive and the Father’s faithful promises are seen in living color through the land and teachings.
Oceans Ministries is excited to lead another Israel trip May 20 – May 31, 2023 and would love to share this life transforming tour with you.
This is the second year Oceans will partner with E.D.I Travel and guide Boaz Shalgi, a 7th generation Israeli. Please go to the website and view a video about him. www.editravel-israel.com.
The approximate price of the trip is $4,800, but that amount is somewhat dependent on airfare and the size of final group. The amount will include all your meals, lodging, transportation, airfare, and tips. (See the attached tentative itinerary).
If you have more questions, please contact us via email.
To reserve your tickets for the trip, please send a deposit check of $500 (per person) by November 1, 2022. Make checks out to Oceans Ministries and send them to:
