What Will 2023 Bring?

 Looking Back

January started with a bang. HR Block asked me to work full time through the tax season, which ended up with 60 hour weeks, serving over 600 clients. Although I loved working consistently, I was exhausted by April 20 so we took a few day to travel to Mexico to relax. In June we took three weeks in a whirlwind trip to Ireland, Halifax, and Rochester. We were able to see many baseballs games and two high school graduations along with exploring the Emerald Isle. In July, Rich headed to Argentina to teach a Bible Institute Class to Pastors from several country while I headed to Michigan to celebrate my Dad's 97th birthday.

Now, with our Greece Trip just around the corner, I thought it prudent to start blogging so those of you who couldn't go with us, can still get a glimpse of where we are and what we are doing.

Our Greece journey started in 2005 when we took a 6 week sabbatical. We landed in Athens, went to the island of Aegina; then went back to the mainland for a 3 day tour of the major landmarks. Then back to the islands, including Paros, Santorini, Samos, Patmos, etc. and then on to Turkey. It was a life changing experience as we met christians in many different situations, broadening our minds about life outside of the US.

Since then, we have been back to Greece three other times making this our 5th trip to Greece. We have developed friendship and connections that will remain with us forever. If you ever have a need to run and hide, these islands just might be on option.

Looking Forward

On September 16, 2023 we will embark on a new adventure with 10 others. You can follow our itinerary at www.greecebibletours.com/newhope.

Our mainland tour will culminate on September 23. On September 24 we will visit the Evangelical Church in Athens where Fotis Romero is the Greek Pastor. During our travels we have developed a friendship with Fotis and he has asked Rich to Preach in the morning service. Then in the afternoon we will fly to the island of Naxos for 4 days with a day trip to Santorini.

Join us as we travel to many historical sites and visit the islands.
