SAT-7 Dennis Wiens, USA Director of Church Connections 816 734-4180 http://www.sat7USA.org
"No region on earth is more spiritually and politically strategic than the Middle East. No ministry is doing more to communicate the Good News in Jesus Christ in the Middle East than SAT-7. No one who visits the Middle East returns home without a spiritually enriching, heart-expanding grasp of what God is doing to fulfill His promises and prophecies. You'll see Biblical sites and camels, satellite dishes and skyscrapers alongside ancient Pyramids and Arab bazaars, the beaches of the Mediterranean Sea laden with history,SAT-7 studios, and most compelling of all - the diverse, dynamic people of the Middle East. And you'll learn. You'll meet Palestinian Christians, walk where Jesus walked, marvel at the eye-popping opulence of King Tut, worship with fellow believers from many countries, and so much more. It's a truly edifying experience and I can't wait. Would you join Sarah and me for SAT-7's once in a lifetime journey to this amazing land?" Rex Rogers, Ph.D., President of SAT-7 USA
