A UNIQUE
Sacred Journey
In the land of the Holy One
Experience the Holy Land
Where Scripture Comes to Life
Thank you for allowing us to accompany you on your journey to deepen your relationship with Jesus. Whether you simply are interested to learn what it would be like to take a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, want to just know more about the Holy Land, or
are registered to participate in a pilgrimage with us, we hope you will allow us to answer all your questions.
On these pages you will get glimpses of your unique journey of discoveries on your personal road to Emmaus. Here you will be introduced to sites you will visit on your pilgrimage and meet people who interact with thousands of pilgrims, yet your experience will be unique—as well as life-changing. The website will inform and inspire but walking the land will transform.
Among the unique features of our pilgrimages are seeing the work of and supporting the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem by utilizing the safe, intimate accommodations of the Diocesan guesthouse, inside the Cathedral Close and five blocks from the Old City while in Jerusalem. In Nazareth you will experience the historic guesthouse of the Sisters of Nazareth, two blocks from the Church of the Annunciation.
For more than 30 years I have guided Christians through this land and witnessed the transformations in their spirituality. As a small business, my family and I look forward to the opportunity to answer your questions, serve your needs, and to be part of your religious experience. Thank you for considering Qumri Pilgrimages to foster that growth.
More Than a Tour
A Living Stones Pilgrimage
Pilgrimages are very different from tours. As we walk through the land where Jesus was born, lived, died and was resurrected, we will not only "visit" these sites but we will "live" them. Our pilgrimages are often referred to as "Living Stones" pilgrimages. You will learn more about this term under the title "Living Stones." In addition, be certain to read the reactions and comments from a few of our pilgrims under the title "Pilgrims Talk."
Many bishops, priests and lay persons have traveled with us throughout the Holy Land. We would like to let them describe their experiences and impressions of our pilgrimages in their own words. We sincerely hope you will enjoy exploring this website.
If you have additional questions or if you would like to schedule a group for a pilgrimage, please feel free to contact us.
