Here are some Chronicles of our travels around the globe as we share the vision of Jesus Celebration 2033. It is important to note, we do not just present the vision. Our goal in these travels is to open our ears and listen to our hosts as they give valuable insight into this worldwide celebration of the 2000 years of Jesus-Christ’s resurrection. These are such joy filled experiences as the resurrected one unites us in depth of heart.
