IN THE FOOTSTEPS
OF
ST. PAUL
Melitour
invites you to
join us on a special pilgrimage through the beautiful land of
Turkey |
|
ANATOLIA is the cradle of
civilizations. Numerous cultures have blended together to create new,
revolutionary ideas and thoughts. Being Anatolian, Paul’s teachings bear a
true reflection of this accumulated culture. As St. Paul traveled around
Anatolia on his three Missionary Journeys, he stopped in many cities and
instructed people about Christian thought and faith. Today’s travelers may
still feel something of Paul’s time in the ruins, the relics, and the
living traditions. And like Paul some Anatolians still sit by their wooden
looms and weave black goat hair into nomadic tents.
Meli's slide show covering the
Biblical Sites of Turkey is now available on a CD-Rom. You can use your PC to
view the 300+ slides while listening to 90 minutes of narration by Meli. To
order the CD-Rom have your credit card ready and call 1-800-325-7111. The price
is $14 including shipping to anywhere in the US. Washington state sales tax of
8.6% will be added to orders shipped to any address in Washington state.
