Take a pilgrimage with Steve and Janet Ray!

What is historically wrong with this picture of Mary and her mother Ann?

As promised, I have attached my analysis of this picture of Mary with her mother, Anne. It is a lovely picture expressing pious spiritual realities, but it is historically inaccurate. It is good to be discriminating and analyze things devotionally and historically. Click HERE of on the image below for a larger, clearer PDF file.

Back to the Holy Land – “Flash Pilgrimage” for those who want to the first ones back

In conjunction with our agents, friends, and advisers in the Holy Land, Janet and I have planned a pilgrimage back to the Land of Our Lord and Lady in March of this year. This will be a smaller and intimate group.

If you would like to join us, visit our webpage HERE. There, you will find an interactive map, brochure, pricing, and itinerary.

My friend and partner in Nazareth wrote his invitation for you to join us. He is in the picture below. We have led over 100 groups together!

We have had a good number of folks ask about getting back sooner rather than later and already have some registering for this pilgrimage.

“I am delighted to invite you to join us on an exclusive pilgrimage to the Holy Land from March 19 to March 28, 2025. Contrary to common perceptions, Israel remains a safe global destination globally.

My family and I have called this sacred land our home for years, a testament to the safety and stability it offers. This pilgrimage will provide access to all regions of Israel and its revered Holy sites, ensuring a deeply enriching and seamless spiritual journey.

“This is a particularly opportune time to visit, as the Holy Land is remarkably quiet in regards to travel, with fewer tourists giving us easy access to sacred sites without the usual crowds or delays. The borders are secure, with no current tensions in the north following the CF agreement with Lebanon, which is set for renewal, and the situation in Gaza is locally contained and has significantly stabilized, with a hostage release agreement on the horizon.

“Ben Gurion Airport is fully operational, ensuring smooth travel in and out of the country. Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to experience the profound beauty, history, and spirituality of the Holy Land in such a calm and welcoming environment.” 

Kind Regards, Amer Shehadeh- CEO
Agent and Guide since 1990, Resident of Nazareth

All the places we visit are open and waiting for us and away from conflict and tension.

Our first group in 2005 — who would have dreamed we’d take 99 more groups following this one!

Trump is the first convicted felon to be elected president. Here is the good news. Americans overwhelmingly re-elected Trump because not all Americans are gullible and stupid. They knew the charges were bogus, and the judge was corrupt. This is the kind of thing that happens in…

President Trump is going OFF on the New York court:

“Today's event was a despicable charade. Now that it is over we will appeal this hoax, which has no merit, and restore the trust of Americans in our once great system of justice. Make America Great Again."

He's 100% right.
