Greece & Turkey Bible Learning Trip

An Information evening about a possible Greece & Turkey Bible Learning trip (September 30 – October 14, 2025), led by Rikk Watts, will be held on Sunday, November 17 at 6:30pm. This trip would be life-changing — making Scripture come alive through first-hand experience of biblical sites. It will include biblical teaching, worship, prayer, and fellowship.

The trip includes visits to Athens, Corinth, Thessaloniki, and Philippi — among other stunning sites such as Epidauros, Meteora, and Delphi. Here, participants will learn about the history and culture that shaped the various cities in which Paul preached — sometimes standing exactly where he stood. Then, through hearing Scripture and Rikk’s teaching, participants will be gripped by the gospel’s transforming power, not only in their world, but also in their own lives.

Crossing into Turkey, and after visiting Istanbul and the legendary city of Troy, the focus will be on the Seven Churches of John’s Revelation, which that same gospel produced. Looking around and having learnt about their individual backgrounds, participants will hear anew what the challenge of following Jesus meant then and now. The trip will conclude in Ephesus, where Paul, Acts, and Revelation intersect.

There will be an information night on Sunday November 17, 2024 at 6:30pm at Living Waters Church in the Upper Room. We encourage you to bring your questions to this night!
