CCF are delighted to have been invited to Israel by CFI for the first visit by a Conservative Christian Fellowship group.
CFI have hosted Conservative MPs, many of them CCF members before, this is the first time CCF members many of them who have stood as parliamentary candidates, have had the opportunity to visit Israel.
We have been privileged to learn at first hand about political challenges on the ground as well as the opportunity to see Biblical sites in the Holy Land.
In a packed programme we have had the opportunity to listen to and learn from a wide range of experts and leaders.
Our meetings have included friendly yet robust conversation with academic and security experts as well and Israeli and Palestinian Christian politicians and business leaders.
Israel has played a unique role in the history of the Christian faith, and we pray for the peace and prosperity of all its people and the wider region.
Gareth Wallace CCF Director said:
"It has been a real privilege to see the land for ourselves as we listen to learn and about Israel at first hand, her (Israel's) fascinating history, complex present and hopes for the future."
