![Leslie Louis - President at Carolina Conference of Seventh-day Adventists]()
Leslie Louis
President, Carolina Conference
“When I was a young college student, I heard a song that captivated my imagination: ‘I walked Today Where Jesus Walked.’ That dream became a reality in 2019 when our Carolina Conference pastors traveled to Israel with Tabgha Tours. I now smile with inexpressible joy especially when I open my Bible to read the gospels and re-live the precious scenes from the story of Jesus. And I think to myself…I really was there. I walked where Jesus walked! What made this adventure most meaningful was the comfortably safe travel and accommodations — and even more so the insightful gems at every site we visited through the careful planning of Tabgha Tours.”

“Travelling to Israel with Tabgha Tours was very memorable and meaningful. Being in places we teach our children about made the Bible stories come alive in new ways. I appreciated Andy’s insights and unrushed pace as we traced the footsteps of Jesus.”

Ron Carlson
President, Kanasa-Nebraska Conference
“Tabgha Tours has set up two study tours for our pastors: Israel in Jesus’ Steps and New Testament Alive to the 7 churches of Revelation and biblical sites in Greece. Both were well planned, affordable, and inspiring. Tabgha Tours is alert to every detail and has an obvious commitment to being sure everyone was cared for, ready to be blessed, and inspired. I highly recommend these tours.”
