Planning is underway for a travel course to the Holy Land for students during Winter Term 2024. The dates will be January 28–February 9, 2024. This course is CD 1613 in the Luther Seminary catalog (The Holy Land: Its People, Places, and Prayers).
The cost of the trip for students will be subsidized through a fellowship, making for an unusually affordable experience for a trip of this length. The resulting cost of the trip is still being worked out, but I estimate between $2,500–3,000 per student, which will include all travel, lodging, most meals, etc.
When the net trip cost is known, probably in a couple of months from now, I will announce it. The same is true for the registration process. I have no additional information available at this point in time. I’m simply starting to get the wheels turning by announcing the dates, so interested students can plan accordingly.
