Dear Friends,
Would you like to experience the Bible come alive in new ways? To encounter its truth in “three-dimensional” reality? June 3-12, 2026, I will be leading a tour to Greece and Turkey to follow in the footsteps of Saint Paul.
We will visit places mentioned in the pages of the New Testament, including Athens, Corinth, Ephesus, Philippi, Thessaloniki, and Crete. We will also enjoy the beautiful Mediterranean islands of Mykonos, Santorini, and Patmos, where John received the visions recorded in the book of Revelation. For those who wish to continue their travel, there is an optional extension trip to Rome.
Apart from Jesus, no other person has made a greater impact on the world than Paul through the gospel he proclaimed. He was a theologian, biblical scholar, pastor, church-planter, and missionary. But most of all… he loved Jesus passionately as demonstrated in his letters like Philippians, Ephesians, and 1&2 Corinthians. On this trip, we will consider his life and writings that our “love may abound even more and more in knowledge and every kind of insight” (Philippians 1:9 NET).
The itinerary and all payment details may be found here on our website. The tour has limited availability and may reach capacity. If you have any questions, please contact Tina Sease (TSease@StAndrews.Church or 843.284.4316).
I hope to be with you next June, following in the footsteps of Paul. Christos Anesti!
In Christ,
Randy
