Kanuga Conferences Inc. is partnering with Province IV and St. George’s College in Jerusalem to host this unique pilgrimage for young people ages 16–20.

Participants will be joined by George Carey, Lord Carey of Clifton and archbishop of Canterbury from 1991-2002, Lady Eileen Carey and the Rev. Canon John Peterson, Washington National Cathedral’s first Canon for Global Justice and Reconciliation, for this unforgettable two-week journey.

Visit the City of David, walk through King Hezekiah’s Tunnel, see the Dead Sea Scrolls, go to the traditional site of the Nativity, ride a boat on the Sea of Galilee, float in the Dead Sea and pray in the Garden of Gethsemane.
