Upcoming Events

We are excited to announce a festival tour for 2026 in Turkey. The 9-night program will span the entire Feast of Tabernacles with six of the nine nights being at an all-inclusive resort along the Icarian/Aegean Sea. However, attendees can start out with a pre-Feast tour of the ancient capital of Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul) and then the Feast begins at Izmir (ancient Smyrna). It continues on to five of the seven Churches mentioned in the book of Revelation. This promises to be biblically educational and a highlight Feast. Hotel accommodations and food will not disappoint. A post-Feast optional tour of Cappadocia will also be available.

This will be an educational Feast focusing on biblical geography, the travels of Paul, early Christian congregations, and the life and culture of the early Church, and of course the meaning of the Feast of Tabernacles.

Turkey is at times referred to as “the Other Holy Land,” and with good reason—many of the events recorded in the book of Acts took place in Turkey, and many of the books of the New Testament were written from or to individuals or congregations here.

To get the most out of our time, church services will be in the mornings after which we will be touring the sites themselves.
