If you’ve been around my coaching and resources, you know that one of the key elements of a pastors personal growth plan each year is some time away to refresh and focus your own spiritual growth.

If you’re like me, you’ve probably been on dozens of spiritual retreats in your years in ministry.

But for me – there’s never been one quite like my first to trip to the Holy Land.

It’s a place that nearly every pastor hopes to some day visit.

But for a lot of the pastors I know, the cost of travel (most trips are $5,500+), and the idea of being herded around on crowded buses with no time to truly enjoy the significance of this place, have kept them from experiencing this once-in-a-lifetime spiritual journey.

That’s why I decided to put together a deluxe first-class, low-cost trip to the Holy Land on May 22-30,2013 exclusively for our Church Leader Insights family.

This is a trip planned BY PASTORS FOR PASTORS (you can bring your spouse, too), and I hope that you will be able to join us!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you to experience the sights and sounds that we read and teach about in scripture first-hand, and I wanted to write to you today to extend a personal invitation to join me and a select group of pastors for this life-changing trip.

Every element (air travel, ground transportation, lodging, meals, destinations, etc.) is being prepared to give you the best possible VIP experience.

I will be leading our tour and teaching practical leadership principles along the way. In addition, you’ll learn from the Holy Land scholar who will serve as our tour guide and our own Church Leader Insights scholar on the Old and New Testaments. Plus – my Worship Pastor, Jason Hatley, will be on the trip as well to lead us in worship.

It’s going to be a spiritual and leadership growth experience that you won’t forget!

This trip is designed to be a spiritual, theological and biblical enrichment experience for you (and your spouse too, if they can travel with you).

With the year coming to a close, now is the time to put this trip into your 2013 budget!

Our trip is only 6 months away, and there is A LOT of interest.  This private trip will fill-up.

So let me cut to the chase – Will you join me on this spiritual retreat to the Holy Land?

If you are seriously interested, I encourage you to request a free information and DVD package available at www.churchleaderinsights.com/holyland.

If you want to be a part of this unique “Pastors” trip to the Holy Land, be sure to request your information soon.

I hope to see you this May in the Holy Land!

Sincerely,

Nelson
