RELIGIOUS (CHRISTIAN PILGRIMAGE) TOURS IN TURKEY "I John... was on the island called Patmos, because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. I was in the Spirit of the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like the sound of trumpet, saying, " write in a book what you see,
and send it to the seven churches". Rev. 1: 9-11
When you think of the Apostolic and the early Christians, you tend to think of them either in Palestine or Rome. In reality after the year 70, little was left in Palestine, and Rome was on its way down, not to become that importantin the life of the church for another 300 - 400 years. The center of Christian life, Apostolic travel, of the final book of the New Testament was all in the cradle of ancient civilizations, the country you know as Turkey. You will walk the same roads as St. Paul, St. John & St. Phillip, wander the streets of the Ephesians, and visit the remains of Paul's Antioch in Pisidia. You will pray in the very same spot where the early Fathers formulated the Nicean Creed of your Sunday Mass. Welcome to one of the most memorable religious, cultural and historic experiences you will ever have.
