The Scriptures will come alive as you visit Our Lord's homeland. You will be inspired by the natural beauty of the landscape, in addition to its rich historical heritage It is an encounter that has changed the lives of many pilgrims, an act of faith and prayer. Pilgrims have been traveling to the Holy Land for hundreds of years, and as part of your pilgrim-age, we include many of the rich traditions that have evolved over time.

Jordan Pre-Tour Option August 15-19, 2012

August 15, 2012—Day 1: Canada - Amman

Begin your spiritual journey as we depart for the overnight flights to Amman.

Upon arrival at Amman you will be greeted by your driver and transfer to your hotel.

Dinner and overnight in Amman.

August 17, 2012—Day 3: Petra

After breakfast we depart for Petra. Upon arrival we enjoy a walking tour. It begins with a walk through the Siq to the Treasury. Continue through the main street with

magnificent structures on each side carved into the mountains, to the colonnaded

street, ending at the Petra Museum. Lose yourself in the history of the Nabateans who meticulously carved massive structures out of the rose colored sandstone. See the

influence of the people that followed including the architecture of the mighty Romans

and a beautiful Byzantine chapel decorated with ancient, stunning mosaics that have

been carefully preserved. Enjoy a free afternoon for shopping, exploration, or rest.

ing the Castle of Kerak, the largest of mountain-top crusader castles. Next we are off

Nebo, where Moses was laid to rest, and where the late Pope John Paul II tread on his

first pilgrimage of the millennium. Visit the Sanctuary at Nebo: the memorial of

Moses, the presumed site of his death and burial place, and a center for pilgrimages

since early Christian times. You'll be inspired by the biblical feel from start to finish

as you experience this divine tour. Mount Nebo is one of the most revered holy sites of Jordan, for this is where Moses was buried. The site's association with the last days

of Moses is described in moving words in Deuteromony. The episode of Balak and

Balam (2:13-26) also took place here. The site's other name is Pisgah: "And Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah which is oppo-

site Jericho." Dinner in Amman.

and colonnaded streets, soaring hilltop temples, handsome theaters, spacious public

squares and plazas, baths, fountains and city walls pierced by towers and gates remain

in exceptional condition. We continue on to Tel Aviv for dinner.

the false prophets of Baal and where the Carmelite Order began. Our next stop is

Cana, the village where Jesus performed his first miracle changing water into wine. Our pilgrim couples will have a special opportunity to renew their wedding vows

during our Mass. We drive to nearby Nazareth, where we will visit the Basilica of the

Annunciation, Mary's Well and the Church of the Angel Gabriel. We arrive in Tibe-

rias in time for our dinner and a restful overnight.

August 21, 2012—Day 4: Day 4, The Ministry of Christ in Galilee

Today we will focus on the ministry of Christ during his time in Galilee. We will

enjoy a peaceful boat ride across the Sea of Galilee where Christ walked on water. We also visit the holy site Capernaum to see the synagogue and St. Peter's house,

where Jesus would have stayed during while ministering in the area. Visit the breath-

taking Mount of Beatitudes where the Sermon on the Mount was given. There will be an unforgettable Mass near the shores of the Sea of Galilee at the Primacy of Mt.

Beatitudes. We continue on to Tabgha where we will the splendid mosaic commemo-

rating the miracle of the loaves and fishes, and to the nearby Church of Peter's Pri-macy where Peter was told "Feed my lambs, feed my sheep." In the afternoon we visit

Caesarea Philippi, where Jesus told Peter "You are the Rock and upon this rock I will

build my Church." We return to our hotel for dinner and a well earned rest.

August 22, 2012—Day 5: Jordan River, Mt. Tabor, Jerusalem

We start our day with a stop at the Jordan River where we will renew our Baptismal

Vows. We will continue to Mount Tabor, scene of the Transfiguration, where we will have Mass in the beautiful small church atop the mountain. We drive down the Jordan

Valley and head towards Jerusalem where we will arrive in time for dinner.

August 23, 2012—Day 6: Jerusalem & Bethlehem We begin our time in Jerusalem with an overview of the past and current geography

of the Old City, including a dramatic view of the Old City from the Mount of Olives,

revealing a city with 4000 years of history. From this vantage point, see much of what makes Jerusalem such a unique city to the three major religions: Christianity, Juda-

ism, and Islam. We then head to the village of Ein Karem, the birthplace of St. John

the Baptist and to the Church of Visitation where the Blessed Virgin Mary visited her cousin, Elizabeth, and proclaimed the 'Magnificat.' In the afternoon we drive to the

Shepherd's Fields where the angels announced the birth of Jesus and celebrate Mass.

We visit the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, which stands upon the site where

Jesus was born. We have time to shop before returning to our hotel for dinner.

August 24, 2012—Day 7: The Passion of Jesus' Last Hours We begin our day with a visit to the Mt. of Olives to walk the Palm Sunday route stopping at Dominus Flevit, where Jesus wept over Jerusalem. Our journey takes us to

Gethsemane, where we will visit the Rock of Agony where Jesus prayed His last

prayer before his arrest. We continue on to the Cave of Betrayal and the Cave of Assumption of Mary to Heaven. We visit Pater Noster, where the universality of the

Catholic Church is evident in the tiled mosaics of the Lord's Prayer in many lan-

guages. We finish our day at the Chapel of the Ascension from where Jesus ascended

to Heaven. We return to our hotel for dinner and an early lights out.

August 25, 2012—Day 8: Stations of the Cross This morning we wake very early for one of the highlights of our trip. As the sun rises we retrace the last steps of Jesus on Good Friday. As we walk along the Via Dolorosa

(Way of Sorrow), through the Old City we will pray the Stations of the Cross as we

walk the same path Jesus took. We reflect on the greatness of His sacrifice as we arrive at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for Mass. We return to our hotel for break-

fast before visiting St. Anne's Church, the home of the Virgin Mary and her parents

Saints Joachim and Anne. We will see the Ecce Home where Pilate proclaimed "Behold the man," the Wailing Wall (the most holy place for Jews). We exit at Mt.

Zion to visit the Upper Room of the Last Supper and the Dormition Abbey where we

believe the Blessed Mary died. We end the day at St. Peter in Gallicantu where Peter denied Christ three times. This afternoon you will have free time to rest or explore

Jerusalem. Return to our hotel for dinner and a restful overnight.

August 26, 2012—Day 9: The Wilderness: Bethany, Jericho, Mt. Temptation,

Dead Sea We begin our day with a visit to Bethany where Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead.

As we head east of Jerusalem into the desert, you will begin to understand the rich Christian tradition of this region. As we continue on we will see the Monastery of St.

George, just off the Roman road that Jesus 'walked.' As we reach the oasis town of

Jericho, we visit the excavations of the oldest city in the world and enjoy a splendid view Mt. Temptation where Jesus fasted and was tempted by Satan. Before returning

to Jerusalem we stop at the Dead Sea where we will have time for a swim (or rather a

float) in the mineral-rich waters. The Dead Sea is renowned for its healing properties and various skin products. Due to the geographic position it is warm enough to swim

year round! As we return to Jerusalem, there will be time for you to revisit some of

your favorite sites, finish your last minute shopping, and rest. We gather for our final

dinner at our hotel.

August 27, 2012—Day 10:Tel Aviv - Canada Early morning departure for Tel Aviv Airport. Take time to reflect on all you have

seen during your visit to the Holy Land and the many ways in which your faith

has grown.

the appropriate consulate and airlines because they may have additional requirements. For the purposes of 206 Tours trips an infant is defined as

anyone who is under the age of 24 months for the entire duration of their trip. A child is defined as any one between the ages of 24 months-11 years for the entire duration of their trip.
