Travel Ministry

Travel. Going on a journey. Pilgrimage. Taking a Trip. Vacation. Whatever we might want to call it, visiting places that allow us to explore our spiritual, cultural, and religious heritage helps us not only connect with the stories and places significant to our faith, it deepens our faith and spirituality. Faith-centered group travel also provides an excellent opportunity to get to know new friends or deepen relationships.
