St George’s College, JerusalemJanuary 22, 2011
As part of our collaborative ministry placement scheme for students at St Michael’s we have been fortunate in obtaining funding for three students to attend the Palestine of Jesus course for seminarians at St George’s College, Jerusalem in January 2011.
St George’s College Trust granted a very generous scholarship to cover a large part of the fees for the students, and two Church in Wales Bursaries covered the shortfall in fees and all travel costs. The course combines study with pilgrimage, and focuses on key elements of the Gospel narrative of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus in the sacred landscape where the story unfolded. Course members visit major sites connected with the Gospel accounts; Bethlehem, Nazareth, the Jordan River, the Sea of Galilee and others
