What We Do

Vision Trips, Journeys and Pilgrimages

Middle East Fellowship sponsors a number of travel opportunities to the Middle East. Through these journeys and person-to-person encounters, we hope to build lifelong relationships, break down false stereotypes and help work toward justice, peace reconciliation and mutual respect between all peoples.

Our travel programs range from ten days to three months. Participants, particularly on our longer journeys, are frequently asked to serve as volunteers for local non-profits, churches and community organizations.

Partnerships with Middle Eastern charities and churches

In order to create and sustain relief and development projects in the Middle East, Middle East Fellowship serves in partnership with churches and highly-qualified indigenous Middle Eastern non-governmental organizations.

Since 1997, we have served as the U.S. support office for Holy Land Trust, an organization in Bethlehem founded by Palestinian Christians. In all that we do, we seek to work in partnership with others in order both to increase cooperation between groups and to enhance the effectiveness of our programs.

Educational Initiatives

Middle East Fellowship seeks to counteract stereotypes and false perceptions about the Middle East through a series of strategic educational initiatives. Some of these initiatives include:

Middle East Window: an online magazine devoted to exploring all aspects of life, culture, art, religions and politics in the Middle Eastern region.

Speaking Tours and Discussion groups: Middle East Fellowship organizes discussion groups and speaking engagements at school campuses, churches and community centers.
