What this is
A template
Starting shape
Not a date. Not a price.
A parish template for the holy places held in the Orthodox tradition: the Holy Sepulchre, the Nativity, Nazareth, Mount Tabor, the churches of the Mount of Olives, and the Galilee. Prayer is planned with the priest who travels.
Hotels, worship, the pace, and the cost are written with your group. This page is the draft we open. A proposal is where it becomes a trip.
Sample outline
The days, before they are yours.
Every group changes this list. Read it as a first draft, not as the trip you will take.
