Experience cross-cultural discussions with others age 55 years or older. Ecclesia suggests that participants are connected to the church and are interested in exploring contemporary issues through the lens of faith. Exchange involves two trips — October 19-29, 2015 in Germany, and May 17-26, 2016 in Ohio. These ideas constitute the Triple E Program, an ideal option for those interested in travel that’s more than simply tourism. The two excursions are being sponsored jointly by the Ohio Conference/German Partnership Working Group and United Church Homes. All participants will have the opportunity to be both a host and a guest. Estimated cost of the trip is $3,000 per person (double room) or $3,330 per person (single room), which includes estimated cost of airfare. Registration deadline is May 31, 2015. Space is limited to 12 participants. Interested?
