God’s Heart for Israel Tour led by Carole Urbas – 20th April to 2nd May 2026
God’s Heart for Israel
God’s Heart for Israel
Step into the story of Israel with a journey designed to reveal God’s heart for the Holy Land and its people. This trip is about more than seeing historic places — it’s about understanding Israel. You’ll visit sacred sites where Scripture comes alive, meet the people who call this land home and hear their stories, and experience the culture firsthand. Along the way, you’ll encounter the living connection between prophecy and promise. Our prayer is that you return not only with memories, but with a testimony — a deeper understanding of God’s heart for Israel and sharing that with others.
