Paul's Pilgrimage

"To the unknown god...What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you."
(Acts 17:23)

Follow the Apostle Paul on his journey through Greece.

We go to places that were anything but perfect – cities full of chaos, conflict, and real people. That is exactly where Paul founded a community. Not saints. But people like us.

This journey is not a vacation. And it is not a pious leisure trip either.

It is an invitation:
👉 to take an honest look
👉 to be on a journey – both outwardly and inwardly
👉 to rediscover your own path

👥 for young people aged 16–30
📅 October 18–25, 2026
📍Athens • Corinth • Peloponnese
💶 €599 (up to age 25) / €659 (age 26 and above) (instead of € 1.249)

Included:
✈️ Round-trip flight
🍽️ Half board
🚌 Local transfers

Am Sonntag, den 21. Juni findet ab 15 Uhr ein Info Nachmittag im CRUX Café statt, wo du offene Fragen stellen kannst. Einfach vorbeikommen.
