Women are satisfying their curiosity with a new Women of Valor Tour of Israel
Since the days of the bible, women have travelled in the company of female companions, and family. Perhaps, it was out of safety and necessity, such as when Rebekah’s damsels accompanied her to marry Isaac. Today, however, more and more women are choosing to journey with female friends as a source of fellowship, solidarity and encouragement.
Travelling collectively to “meet” women of the bible
Most people have encountered the bible’s leading heroines from reading the Scriptures and reflecting upon them during prayer. Now, there’s a way to deepen your understanding of them – to experience their lives in the land that they called home. The Kenes Christian Tours Women of Valor tour does just that – in a pilgrimage of personal growth, exploration and transformation – with an inspirational journey in the footsteps of the most prominent biblical women.
Tour in the spirit of the ancient matriarchs
This sister-centric perspective enables women of today to draw insight from the foremothers’ lives and their brave acts. Standing in the holy places where they once stood empowers women to see themselves as their ancestors, able to make a difference in today’s world and influence the people around them. It highlights the lives of courageous matriarchs, such as Deborah, Ruth and the Three Marys, and provides opportunities for unifying prayer, reflection and friendship at Bathsheba’s City of David, in Mary’s village of Bethany, at Rachel’s Tomb and other holy sites.
Dynamic women, then and now
The Women of Valor tour brings the subject of women full circle, with introductions to well-respected women in Israel today – local scholars, Christian leaders and modern Israeli role models. Traversing the spectrum of religions, nationalities and backgrounds, these charismatic mothers, sisters and daughters are influencing the course of history through their actions – locally, nationally and internationally. Pray and study in sisterhood with a leading female Christian evangelist in Israel, participate in a bible reading with a female biblical scholar from a local college and enjoy a biblical food workshop led by local Christians, among other activities.
A journey for the heart and soul
Women of all ages – career women, mothers or women in their golden years – are seizing the opportunity for collective travel for spiritual growth and meaningful dialog. They are drawing mutual energy from the message of the Scripture and strengthening their bonds with others of kindred spirit. The Women of Valor tour also creates a natural network, inspiring women to engage with their communities and take action in missions impacting women around the world.
A women’s rite of passage whose time has come
In January 2017, Kenes Christian Tours is offering a special FAM tour for female pastors, pastors’ wives and women leaders in the Christian community. The pilgrimage itinerary travels through the Galilee, Jerusalem, Old Jaffa and other areas of holy Christian significance.
