我們的團隊持續為新移民安排認識以色列傳統的教學參觀旅行。我們非常感謝耶路撒冷的”Beit Sar Shalom(平安王之家)”彌賽亞中心的贊助。新約中提到的幾個地方也都包含在我們的短程旅行裡面。第一個特殊的地方是在Latrun的堡壘及修道院。”Latrun”這個字是從法語La toron des Chevaliers而來，意思是”騎士之丘”。在12世紀時，這裡是聖戰的堡壘，固守從雅法到耶路撒冷的通路。修道院的一個特點就是斷絕與世俗之間的交流之故，這個修道院叫做”修道院的沉默”。聖經時代的以馬忤斯，或是之後羅馬時代的尼克波利斯，都位在這裡。這是非常重要的一個地點，是當耶穌復活後遇見祂的兩個門徒之處。那天晚上，耶穌為他們剥餅及祝福，他們眼睛的帕子被挪開，就認出祂來。(路加福音24:13ff)
On October 27-28, 2016 a Korean group of 40 people organized cultural evenings in our congregation. The first evening was organized for Holocaust Survivors and their families. The second evening was for the members of our congregation. They prepared an interesting and colorful program: traditional singing and dancing, drumming, origami, hairstyling and of course tasty dishes of Korean food.
On October 25, 2016, the ministers of our congregation organized a trip for new immigrants to Masada.
Masada is an ancient fortress, which is located near the Israeli town Arad on the southern coast of the Dead Sea.
On October 20, 2016, the youth and the soldiers from our congregation went to the north of Israel. A trip by jeep through the mountains, to the waterfall called “Banias” and to Caesarea Philippi. They had fun spending time together and a good rest.
