Mount Carmel-Zion United Church Serving Aberfoyle, Morriston, and the surrounding area

Please find attached a poster for our CUBA tour FEBRUARY 7 - 14, 2010 with John Domenic Crossan.

Once again I am pleased to team up with Dr. Chris Levan, now based in Fredericton NB, to offer you a chance to experience the spiritual and social life of Cuba. Our first week with Chris Levan includes all the things listed below on his poster. Some of you have had "all inclusive" vacations in Cuba. It included everything you wanted on a vacation--but it didn't include getting to know Cubans, in particular Cubans of faith. This is a trip to Cuba and a chance to get to know the Cuba you missed on your all inclusive holiday. Call me for more background and information. Please pass this information to your church members, your community and networks, and your websites. The option to stay a second week is available.

Blessings, Vallerie Ross

"We visited Cuba not the resorts. This was an opportunity to deepen our understanding of the gospel in a joy-full community of Cubans and Canadians who are trying to live it. The hospitality at Matanzas was generous and genuine. Dominic's lectures reminded us that as Christians we are fellow citizens of the 'Empire of God'."
