"Best of Egypt" for Clergy with Elias Nawawieh

  • January 15 - 23, 2025
All-Inclusive $ 2,490

Welcome to the Best of Egypt! This is an excellent opportunity for continuing education for rostered ministers and church leaders! Elias Nawawieh, company owner and travel expert, will be your host while visiting the iconic pyramids of Giza, the majestic Sphinx, and the must-see Valley of the Kings in Luxor. At Mount Sinai (St. Catherine's Monastery), we will hike the sunrise view with local monks. Our Guest Speaker for the trip will be the Rev. Dr. Rachel Wrenn, Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies at Trinity Lutheran Seminary at Capital University. Come and experience the Best of Egypt with Elias Tours, your connection to holy lands! Every year we do one Pastors and Church Leaders tour at a reduced cost for three reasons: 1. To thank you for the work you do in the Church and give you time after Christmas and before Easter to bask and be well cared for. 2. It is a deep value of ours, at Elias Tours, to give Pastors and Church leaders the opportunity to experience holy sites in person and learn from incredible leaders, the land, and the local people. This enriches you, your teaching, and your congregations while sharing the good news of what God has done and what God continues to do in the world! 3. Our hope is to host you again with your Church or organization. This is your time to sample and choose what your tour could look like and how we can partner with you in future trips with Elias Tours trip destinations.  Here is some more information about our Guest Speaker: the Rev. Dr. Rachel Wrenn is an ordained Lutheran (ELCA) pastor and an Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies. A sought-after presenter, she often speaks at pastoral gatherings and lay church conferences. Dr. Wrenn has written multiple articles on anger in the Psalms and in liturgies, as well as several articles of biblical commentary and preaching for WorkingPreacher.org. She is the co-host of the podcast First Reading, an Old Testament lectionary podcast for preachers and teachers of the Bible (https://firstreadingpodcast.com/). Dr. Wrenn invites and challenges her students to experience both the delights and the difficulties of the biblical text. She is excited and eager to begin our adventure in Egypt.
