The 2007 Israel Study Trip is now open for registration. This
year Professor Andy Snider and Dr. Trevor Craigen will be leading the
trip. While this trip is primarily designed for seminary students, there
are limited openings for “friends of the seminary.”
The dates for the trip are May 14, 2007 to June 3,
2007.
This trip has several exciting features:
• Nearly Three
Weeks in Israel
• A Day of Digging at a Working Archaeological
Site
• Special Lectures
• Daily Instruction from the IBEX
Faculty
• Several “Free” Days in Jerusalem for Personal Exploration
The cost of the trip this year is $3,250. This price includes all
airfare and travel expenses, hotels, instructional materials, and most
meals. Payment will be due in two parts in February and April.
Non-students (including seminary wives) must pay a $500 deposit to reserve a
space.
Also included in the trip cost are:
Four Units of
Seminary Credit for students
- Two Units for the Spring Geography of Israel Class. The Tuition for
the class is applied directly to the cost of the trip.
- Two Units for the Summer School Field Studies in Israel course.
- Course Credit can be applied to M.Div or Th.M Programs - See Prof. Swanson
(dswanson@tms.edu) for details.

TMS Students and
Alumni have first priority for making reservations for the trip; however, there
should be some limited room for “immediate” family members and “friends of the
seminary” to also participate. If you are even considering going on the
trip please begin the process of obtaining a US passport. If your passport
is scheduled to expire on or before September 2007, you need to renew your
passport for this trip. If you are not traveling on a United States
Passport, please check with your consular office for VISA requirements to travel
to Israel. Be certain to advise your consular office that this trip is
being done in conjunction with your seminary studies.
The itinerary for the
trip will be finalized in the next few weeks. For those not living in
Southern California, there may be additional travel expenses to make the
connecting flights to join our group, again, please contact the office for
further information.
