Iraq Tour '25
Have you ever driven a car? Eaten a slice of bread? Sent a text message? Lived in a rectangular house? Paid a tax or resolved a conflict in a court of law? Said a prayer, sung a song or told a story? That means you have made use of something or some situation that originated in the Land Between the Two Rivers. Mesopotamia is humanity’s birthplace, where people settled down in cities, planted wheat, invented the earliest form of writing, passed laws and invented the wheel among other tools. Join us on this trip organized by the Arab Christian Ministry. We will visit the rich history of Iraq and be overwhelmed by the hospitality of its loving people. Four of the cities that we are visiting were each, individually and at different times, the greatest city in the world: Ur (capital of the Sumerians,) Babylon (of the Babylonians,) Baghdad (of the Islamic Abbasid dynasty) and Nineveh (of Assyria.)
