Greece & Turkey Tour with Bishop Dave Nagler - Pacifica Synod - ELCA
- İstanbul
- October 22 - November 2, 2025
All-Inclusive
$ 4,890
After the scales fell from Saul's eyes and he became Paul his only passion was sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with the world. He understood that the message of God's unconditional love was not just for Jewish people like him, but for everyone! So he followed God's leading to far away places and diverse cultures to let them know how Divinely loved they truly were. I want to invite you to join me in following Paul's footsteps through Türkiye and Greece. We will stand in places where he delivered sermons. We will meet people who are direct spiritual descendants of these early churches. Most importantly, we will open our hearts to what God has to say to us and how God can transform our lives. I hope that you will make the investment of time and finances in this once in a lifetime spiritual pilgrimage. Let's do this together!

Reading biblical stories that relate to Egypt while looking at the pyramids or praying a psalm about the wilderness while looking off into the desert are powerful experiences. Egypt’s presence is always in the background of Scripture as THE empire, the embodiment of an economic system named after its signature site, against which the prophets thundered, a place of enslaved peoples making bricks with no straw; but also a place of surprising refuge, welcome, abundant hospitality, where leaders could be moved by love, forgiveness and humility, a context for birthing risky courage, and a liberation narrative that has changed the world. “Out of Egypt” God has called us all.
My invitation is to join the sojourn “into” Egypt. Along with its ancient witness, its current hospitality, beauty, and rich culture is truly awesome. Traveling with church friends, sharing this experience, and learning more about God’s presence everywhere in history will be a transforming experience. And with me, a lot of fun!

*The trip is currently full, but we have a waiting list! Send an email to: info@eliastours.com
Whether you are dreaming about your first Camino, or are an experienced pilgrim, we would love to experience the Camino de Santiago with you! For centuries, people have believed that walking these pilgrim routes has brought them a sense of peace and enlightenment as they came away feeling God’s presence. We are both Camino rookies, but through a series of taps on our shoulders felt God calling us to lead a group of women on this journey. We have found an outstanding tour company that comes highly recommended by trusted seminary professors, and we are excited to see where God is leading us all on this journey together!
We will begin walking in Madrid and make our way to the Cathedral de Santiago in Galacia, located in northwestern Spain, hiking between 4-16 miles each day. We will be beautifully supported by guide and driver, spending our days hiking and our evenings dining together and in a 4 star hotel.
We are looking forward to this time set aside for reflection, for feeling God’s presence on our journey, and to walking, laughing, and being inspired alongside you!
Love and blessings, Pastors Monica and Becca

Steps of Paul Tour with Rev. Andrea Roske-Metcalfe - Diamond Lake Lutheran Church
- Athens, Greece
- October 14 - 25, 2025
All-Inclusive
$ 4,890
I’m delighted to invite members and friends of Diamond Lake Lutheran Church in south Minneapolis to travel with me to Greece and Turkey to walk in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul and other leaders of the early church. The stories of the New Testament will come alive for us in new ways as we renew our baptismal promises in the very location of Lydia’s baptism, as we stand atop Mars Hill in the shadow of the Acropolis where Paul preached to the city of Athens, as we visit the Island of Patmos where John wrote the book of Revelation.
Paul wrote letters to the Corinthians – we’ll visit Corinth, where the extensive ruins indicate the importance of this city. He wrote a letter to the Ephesians – we’ll visit the ancient and sprawling city of Ephesus, with its breathtaking Celsus library. Paul wrote letters to the Thessalonians and the Philippians – we’ll visit Thessaloniki and Philippi, where Paul and Silas were thrown into prison.
And because we’re there already and because context matters, we’ll learn about the oracle of Delphi, we’ll visit the monasteries balanced impossibly atop the towering cliffs of Meteora, we’ll travel by sea to the islands of Crete and Mykonos and Rhodes and Santorini. We’ll draw on our understanding of Greek mythology as we stand in the ruins of massive stone arenas and alongside temples built by Greek gods. We’ll visit the Panathenaic Stadium, home to the first Olympic Games of modern times. We’ll do wine tastings and olive oil tastings; we’ll learn about how icons are made. We’ll eat more feta cheese than we ever thought possible.
We’ll learn more about ourselves, more about one another, and more about our own relationships to scripture.
It's going to be a good time. I hope you can join us!
In festive anticipation,
Pastor Andrea Roske-Metcalfe
