| ……………What an awesome experience to be in the
place where biblical events took place and to actually walk where
Jesus walked! …………… I’m still trying to process and soak it all
in…………… There was so much to see and learn, I really felt like I
was drinking from a fire hose!…………… I am looking forward to using
your services in taking a group from my church to Israel in the
future. ~BF 1/09 |
|
| The hotel was a top notch place to stay – wonderful
place, food, people, internet and the baptism at the Jordan River
was an incredible experience…………… Meeting with local leaders, helped
me feel appreciated and closer to knowing God’s (Yahweh) Heart.

| My favorite sight was Capernaum because I felt
close to Jesus more. It was fascinating to see the home the Lord
took to his for 3 yrs. The area was beautiful. My favorite time
was in the Pavilion Prayer Tower on Jaffa Street, Jerusalem. The
presence of God was so strong, I felt weak. I cried for 20 minutes
uncontrollably. It was a time I will never forget. ~MV 05/08

| All the places we visited were phenomenal but
the Mt. of Olives, Garden of Gesemane, and the Jordan River where
I was baptized and heard the testimonies of those baptized was touching.
Imagine, I stood on the Mt. of Olives where Jesus one day will set
his feet. Zechariah 14:4 ~SM04/08 |

| "I absolutely loved my trip to Israel. I would
go back in a heartbeat. I haven’t stopped telling people how wonderful
it was to spend time in the Holy Land. I’m not sure I could pick
just one favorite site, because it was all so amazing." ~SD 04/08
|
| |
| It has been 3 months since returning and I find
myself reflecting back on the spiritual change that I encountered
through this trip. Looking from a Hebraic standpoint, the influx
of Hebraic and Jewish dispersion gives a reality check when opening
the word and reading it. …………………I will never be the same. I am forever
changed. ~DS 04/08 |

"Dear Friends: Our Holy Land trip with JDI
was the experience of a lifetime. Sincerely it was the best
and most spiritual trip we have ever experienced. We have
taken several vacations and mission trips. Our trip with JDI was
the best of all. The travel arrangements were well planned and you
made each guest feel at ease in Israel. The JDI staff was
always alert and sensitive to the needs of each member of our group.
The tour guides were knowledgeable and well versed in the area.
They were sensitive to the interests of the group. Having
a believer as our guide made the trip all the more enjoyable.
The number of sites we were able to see during the trip was amazing.
The JDI staff and guide made each site a true spiritual highlight.
The accommodations were outstanding. We were pleased with
each place we stayed. The meals were far better than we had
anticipated. Being a diabetic it is often difficult for me
to eat on trips. But not on this one. The variety of
choices of foods was tremendous. We are deeply grateful to JDI
Travel for your ministry to pastors and to Israel. It is our hope
to take a group next year through JDI."~Sincerely, Pastor GS 3/07

| "My favorite site was the boarded up Eastern
Gate and knowing it is to stay that way until the Messiah—The Prince
comes through it. I was thrilled to see it in person and I know
I will see it again. I was impressed by our tour, it was a good
mix of the ancient, the old and the new. I am so proud of what all
the Israelis have done to this land. I stand with them, I pray for
them, and I thank JDI." ~MW 3/07 |

| "Thank you for all your hard
work in making our Holy Land tour a wonderful success. You added
some nice highlights and accommodated my requests. Service was very
good. <The guide> was excellent. Thanks again." ~DH 2/07 |

| "Our tour was well organized,
in depth, interesting, informative. Our guide was fantastic, concerned
we experience Israel: Biblical, historical, traditional, and enjoyable.
His presentations were complete and he cared for us in many ways.
When my son took me to the airport, he mentioned I would never read
the Bible the same way again. I did not realize how true those words
would be in addition to reading: a flashback reaction of a visual,
a conversation, a prayer, and those special moments of being alone
with God. Thank you for providing this wonderful tour opportunity."

| "JDI Travel took us on an
adventure I will never forget. Not only did we have an outstanding
bus driver and tour guide, but our two weeks changed our lives forever.
We were walked through Israel’s most beautiful sites with our guide’s
vast knowledge of the history and current events in accordance to
each site. While bringing the Holy Land alive, he brought Christ
to life in us as well. My most memorable moment was the early ride
to Masada. How beautiful and intimidating those mountains were in
the dark. Yet even they bow down to the Creator. I spent that hour
ride on the bus praising and worshipping Him, our Creator and Lord."
