Cycle the Galilee 2011

Date: 
November 6, 2011 (All day) - November 13, 2011 (All day)

The first of our Nazareth Bike Rides was in 1992, so how is this the 150th Anniversary? 

It is 150 years since the Nazareth Hospital was founded and we are delighted to be able to take part in these celebrations with our sister organisation, the Nazareth Trust.
Many of you may have participated, already, in our rides and for those of you who have not, it is a wonderful experience. A hard physical challenge earns the sponsorship money, there is great fellowship and abiding friendships are made along the way. 
Most importantly, and our Unique Selling Point, is that you will be able to spend time at the hospital and see the wonderful work done there. What better time to go than to join in the 150th Anniversary celebrations?

 

The ride will be part adventure and part pilgrimage and every penny we receive in sponsorship will have a positive impact . GET INVOLVED - it will be an experience like no other - and, of course, you will be making a very real difference to the vital work and ministry of EMMS International and The Nazareth Trust.
