Java with Jen Travels: Hearing God in Greece

Experience Beauty, History & Scripture Where it Happened

1.

Walk Where Paul Walked

Step into the book of Acts as you explore Athens, Mars Hill, and Corinth — the same places Paul preached, prayed, and wrestled through faith that shaped the early Church.

These aren’t just historic sites; they’re places where Scripture takes on weight and meaning.

2.

Deepen Your Faith

Through prayer, guided journaling, worship, and intentional spiritual conversations woven into the journey, you’ll learn to recognize God’s voice with greater confidence — not just here, but in everyday life when you return home.

We will also have prophetic ministry among team members as well!

3.

Beauty, Food & Culture

From Santorini’s postcard sunsets to food that feels like it was made to be savored, you’ll experience Greece’s beauty and culture at a pace that allows you to truly take it in — and share it with people who will quickly feel like kindred spirits.

4.

Rest, Reflect & Connect

This isn’t a jam-packed tour. It’s a thoughtfully paced retreat as well as a memory making adventure.

You’ll have space to rest, reflect, sip coffee by the sea, journal, pray, and connect — with God and with the people walking alongside you.

What if you heard the Holy Spirit whisper as you walked the very streets Paul did?

Imagine standing on Mars Hill where Paul preached about the “unknown God”… or sitting in Corinth where he wrote letters that still shape our faith today...

This isn’t just sightseeing — it’s a chance to:


• Experience God in new ways
• See Scripture come alive before your eyes
• Walk away refreshed, inspired, and forever changed

Your faith will feel more tangible than ever… and your soul will carry home memories that last a lifetime.

let me introduce...
