DATE:
November 13-16, 2019
We will trace the steps of our founder, Rabbi Leopold Cohn, who left his old life in Hungary behind in 1892 and came to New York in search of the Messiah. He heard the gospel on the Lower East Side of Manhattan and then dedicated his life to sharing the gospel with his fellow Jewish people. The rest is history—through many trials and successes, the Lord’s grace has sustained Chosen People Ministries for the past 125 years!
The Heritage Tour begins with a welcome reception on Wednesday evening at the Chosen People Ministries International Headquarters, followed by two full-day tours in Manhattan and Brooklyn, including the 125th Anniversary Banquet on Friday evening.
Your visit to New York City will provide you with a personal look at the heritage and ministry of Chosen People Ministries and will feature visits to sites that also focus on the Jewish roots of New York. Dr. Mitch Glaser, president of Chosen People Ministries, will personally host your New York City adventure.
Do not miss this invitation-only opportunity! These will be three days you will remember forever!
Space is limited to fifty guests, so please RSVP by October 1, 2019 to secure your place!
The Heritage Tour will include an intimate group of guests who will fellowship and share this incredible journey through the history of Chosen People Ministries on the streets of New York City.
*For an additional cost, we can book tickets to a Broadway show that you can attend on your own time on Thursday or Saturday. Please request more information on shows and availability.
