Galilee Team

The Christian HolyLand Foundation partners with six pastoring couples who are all native to the Galilee region of northern Israel. In their capacity as church planters, they serve both established congregations and 'home' churches. They are also active in specialized ministries such as Women's programs and trainings, Believer reconciliation events, youth groups, and more. Since 2005 they have expanded from 6 ministries in 5 different communities, to working with some two dozen groups in nearly 30 villages and towns.

These couples each have their own individual ministries, as well as working together as a Team on large or special projects. They meet together regularly for worship, encouragement, planning, and accountability.
