OBERAMMERGAU

Individuals and groups find enjoyment and faith enrichment by visiting locations that are meaningful to their religious traditions.  Protestants may wish to explore Luther Land in Germany, especially sites like Wittenberg or Augsburg where the Reformation was born.  Roman Catholics may feel blessed by going to famous pilgrimage sites, cathedrals and monestaries.

The Passion Play in Oberammergau, Germany, is presented only every ten years.  It is the most attended happening of its type anywhere in the world.  It is not too early to begin planning this once in a lifetime experience that will not be held again until the year 2020.  You may wish to join one of our groups, or gather a contingent from your church or a group of churches in your area.  Sponsoring churches or other religious organizations receive a benefit based on the number of travelers comprising the group.
