You are invited to an information session about a 2-week group tour/ pilgrimage to Israel and Palestine that Plymouth Church is planning to offer this Oct./Nov. Joan Deming will serve as the tour coordinator, together with the Rev. Dr. DeWayne Davis. An additional information session will take place on Sunday, February 12.

The tour will include visits to key biblical holy sites but will also focus on discovering the Land through desert and agricultural valley hikes. We will have in-depth visits with Peacemakers whose organizations are working in both Palestine and Israel to celebrate the culture and work for a just peace for all in the Holy Land.

Joan Deming, a new member of the Plymouth family, is a retired United Methodist pastor and nonprofit executive director. Since 2009 she has led 17 group tours to Israel and Palestine with a focus on meeting with and supporting Palestinian Christians, who now comprise only 1-1/2% of Israel/Palestine’s population.
