What will we see each day?
Our itineraries are designed to be not too full—or too empty! Each day we'll have breakfast at our hotel, followed by the day's activities. In the evenings, you'll have the opportunity to join the devotional time. Enjoy browsing the proposed itinerary.

We'll gather in the evening at our hotel for dinner and introductions. D

"The Event will be called - Calling All Nations: A Global Gathering, because we truly want it to be a global gathering of young Christian people and the young at heart. I love the scripture that talks about every tribe and tongue and people and nation being gathered together and that’s what it’s going to be like in the age to come. Our prayer is that this gathering will be a little taste of heaven on earth, and for those who are unsaved who come along, that they will taste something that will change their lives forever." Noel Richards - event organizer, singer and songwriter More information is available as a pdf or on the Calling All Nations website.

Sunday, July 16, 2006 · Herrnhut or Herrnhut Area
This morning we'll have the privilege of worshipping with local believers. Leaving Berlin we drive to Herrnhut on the border of Germany and the Czech Republic where Count Ludwig von Zinzendorf allowed a small group of religious refugees from Moravia to settle on his land in 1722. The spiritual heritage of these people includes the “Bohemian Brethren,” who, like Jan Hus, proclaimed a strictly Bible-based faith, which brought them into conflict with church and state. As more and more refugees flowed into the land, a village was born named Herrnhut, meaning, The Lord’s Watch. It was in Herrnhut that the assembly of Brothers and Sisters gathered in the remarkable “100 Year Prayer Meeting,” out of which the modern missionary movement was born.

Monday, July 17, 2006 · Prague
We take time this morning to pray at the Prayer Tower and to learn more about the missionary movement and history that was launched here. Then we continue on to Prague where a local guide will take us on a city tour including St. Vitus Cathedral, Charles Bridge, Wenceslaus Square, the Old Jewish Quarter and the famous Astronomical Clock. B/D

Tuesday, July 18, 2006 · Prague
A local Pastor and members of his church have arranged today’s activities. We will learn about the life of John Hus and be inspired by the power of his words. We'll visit Týn church which has always played a major role in the history of the Reformation in Bohemia and was the most important church of the Hussites in the 16th century. We'll also spend time in Bethlehem Chapel, which was originally a Gothic chapel dating from 1391. This chapel was where Jan Hus preached from 1402 to 1412, to crowds of more than 3,000 with standing room only! This is a unique opportunity to learn about his epic struggle eventually resulted in his death at the stake in 1415. B

Wednesday, July 19, 2006 · Leipzig
Today we drive to Leipzig where our city tour will include St. Thomas Church, whose most celebrated choir master and organist was Johann Sebastian Bach. We will also see St. Nicholas Church where the pastor and congregation held the Peace Prayer services that became demonstrations leading, in September 1989, to the fall of the Berlin Wall. B/D

Thursday, July 20, 2006 · Leipzig
Today’s excursions take us to Eisenach and Erfurt. Eisenach is the site of the Wartburg Castle. It was here that Martin Luther, disguised as Junker George, was in hiding and where he translated the New Testament into German, allowing the people to read the Word themselves. We then continue on to Erfurt, where Luther entered the University and where he later became a monk. We will tour the Augustinian Monastery where he lived and have a time of fellowship there. We have a short city tour of Erfurt before returning to Leipzig. B

Friday, July 21, 2006 · Berlin
This morning we drive to Wittenberg, the center of Luther's Reformation activity. It was here he placed the 95 Theses on the door of the Schloßkirche, or Castle Church, in 1517. Luther taught at the University of Wittenberg and is buried in the Castle Church. We see the statues of Luther and Melanchthon in the village square. We continue on to Berlin for our final night.
