During your time on this special tour “Gospel on the Nile,” you'll not only discover the gospel in ancient Egypt but you will build faith. You will step back in time as we uncover similarities to what the Egyptians embraced as the first Pharaoh sought earnestly to imitate the religion held by Adam, Noah, Abraham and Moses. You will appreciate even more the divine restoration of the gospel through Joseph Smith by experiencing, seeing, feeling, and touching those ancient concepts. You’ll discover that these principles, sacred to Latter-day Saints, are explained on ancient temple walls or in papyrus in amazing ways. We are traveling in great time, so you'll get to take advantage of the cooler weather and smaller crowds. This is a life-changing, faith-building experience you won’t want to miss.
