THREE CONTINENTS

ASIA (TURKIYE)
EUROPE (GREECE)
AFRICA (EGYPT)

MARCH 17 - MARCH 28, 2026

This cruise/tour provides Latter-day Saints an opportunity to explore the rich tapestry of early Christian history and its connections to the teachings of the gospel. Visiting Türkiye, the crossroads of East and West,  allows for reflection in which the early Church flourished.  Visiting  Ephesus and the House of Mary, you’ll find a sacred connection to the early Christian community. The visit to Patmos, where John received his revelations, serves as a reminder of the importance of personal revelation and the role of prophets in guiding God’s children. As you explore Athens where the Apostle Paul preached, you’ll be inspired to contemplate your own testimony and the enduring power of faith in a world that often challenges beliefs. Upon arriving in Egypt, the ancient land of the Pharaohs, you will delve into the biblical history, including the stories of Moses, the Exodus, and the Egyptian temples which resonate deeply within LDS theology. This journey will enrich your understanding and strengthen your commitment to sharing the gospel.
