WORCESTER, Mass., The slowly but surely growing Annual trip to the Holy land by Hosanna Gospel Center of Worcester in partnership with SG Travel International is back on the limelight with a trip planned for November 21-29 this year, at a reduced price of $2,550 per person down from $3,500 four years ago.
Announcing the 2015 trip, Sophie Gathecha Clottey, CEO of popularWorcester based discounted air tickets company said that things have been getting better for the annual trips since they started four years ago.
Among the good news happening this time around is the reduced cost of $2,550 per person sharing a room with fellow travelers, as well as better and more effective schedules once the group lands in Israel. "As we learn more on how to save costs and make better itineraries, we have been able to save quite a bit and reduce the costs of the trip. This has enabled more and more believers to take part in these memorable trips that bring them to walk where Jesus walked," she told Ajabu Africa News during an interview. The tour operator added that in addition to the more efficient travel arrangements they had put in place, many people who have taken the trip have come back reporting of life changing encounters with others receiving miracles of different sorts.
She said that during most recent trip in 2014, a Kenyan woman in Worcester who previously required two people to help her get into the church van due to severe arthritis got healed miraculously as soon as she entered into the legendary River Jordan to fetch some water into a bottle to bring back home for her grandchild's baptism. "We were shocked when this lady who had decided to take the trip of her life time entered into the River Jordan to get water to bring back home started running up and down the steps while screaming and yelling at the top of her voice. She was saying that she just got healed and was over excited," revealed Gathecha while recounting the scene the woman caused, leaving other tourists and onlookers bewildered. And from that moment the lady never needed any help to get in to the bus again.
She added that yet, another gentleman from the Liberian community in Worcester who had been dragged into the trip by his wife remained cynical about the Christianity narrative that had them spend so much money and time for the trip. She said that before the group left Worcester, the man half- heartedly agreed to be prayed for and anointed with oil by Gathecha's late husband, Rev. James Clottey who also had never missed a trip since they started. However, when the group reached the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, the Liberian gentleman had an experience that changed his life forever.
"He told us that a middle aged man had approached him while he was staring at the wall and other people placing their prayer needs between the cracks of the Jerusalem Wailing Wall. He said that this man has a brief chat with him and inquired where they had come from.He told him that we were visiting from Worcester near Boston in USA. The strange man then gave him a special message and asked him to bring it back to people in his area.Then as the Liberian turned to take a better look of the strange man, the gentleman had vanished into thin air, right in front of his eyes!" Gathecha told Ajabu Africa News that from that moment onwards, the gentleman had a complete about turn about his views on Christianity and now cannot stop witnessing to everyone he comes across while giving them messages of the Good News he received that day. "Other people have reported different kinds of miracles including financial breakthroughs. If you go looking for a change in your situation, you will get it," Gathecha declared. She said that among the top places this year's sojourners will visit includes the historic city of Jerusalem, Mount of Calvary where Jesus was crucified, the Seven Stations of the Cross that Jesus had to stop on his way to be crucified, the Upper Room, site of the Last Supper, the Tomb of David, plus the Wailing Wall.
Gathecha added that other places travelers will visit include the City of Bethlehem where Jesus was born, the Sea of Galilee, the Mount of Beatitudes, then on to the River Jordan where Jesus was baptized,Capernaum, as well as Tel Aviv, for shopping and relaxation.
She urged those who may be interested in joining the already signed up believers to get in touch with her as the trip is in a few months. "Last year,12 people took the trip.This year, we already have 18 people.We welcome anyone to this memorable event. The fellowship is great. Everything is arranged and there is nothing to worry about.We will all be in the same hotel and will have professional tour guides to show us and explain to us the history of each site we visit. It will be a life changing trip for you," she assured. She said payment installments are available as long as they get started as soon as possible and be finished byAugust 15,2015 to make the planning smooth and efficient.
