"Alexander College is a very powerful tool that gives the Church a means to go back to our Jewish roots. I recommend it for all clergy and others in Christian ministry."
The Most Rev. Henry Luke Orombi, Archbishop of Uganda
At a personal level, it has enlivened my faith. I have been able to trace the roots of the things I believe in. My faith has been deepened and strengthened. And although my faith was not shallow before I came, but I know now that it is stronger than before. In conclusion, I want to make a plea: this is a good programme which I would love to see many of my people in my diocese undergo. Please allow me to send at least a person or two on every trip, so that we can form a team in my diocese to help bring new life and approach to the bible and faith in our church. Thank you very much for allowing me to be part of this important trip.

"Alexander College provided us with a tour itinerary that was focused on our special needs--a mix of graduate and undergraduate students. The graduate level instruction surpassed our expectations. Even four years on I get notes from students commenting on the trip of their lives."

"The Scriptures, the People, and the Land of Jesus . . . transporting pastors, teachers and students into this Hebraic matrix in short-term study programs is the powerful teaching strategem of Alexander College that forever changes the way we look at and follow Jesus."
Dwight A. Pryor
Founder & President
Center for Judaic-Christian Studies
"Alexander College has put it all together effectively - accurate explanation of the places visited, rich Bible teaching throughout, clear presentation of the historic connections between Christianity and the Jewish world, encouraging exposure to various Christian witnesses, and unforgettable worship and fellowship. I have not found any other organization that does it all so well."

"I am blessed to have participated in three Shoresh Study Tours. The Shoresh staff can open the Scriptures in unique ways that have the potential to change lives, even whole congregations. It is the next best thing to having lived in the 1st century."
Rt. Rev. John Buchanan
"When I hosted a Shoresh tour to Israel, it was the best time I had ever had in the Land. The teaching was deep, exciting and biblical. Just seeing the Land through the eyes of the believers in the Land was a wonderful experience. I thoroughly recommend the Shoresh tours."
Helen Shapiro
"In all my travels to Israel over the years, I have never come across an organisation that offers a better blend of holiday and informed study than Shoresh Tours. For all the cliched uses of the phrase 'life changing experience', frankly participants in a Shoresh tour return home inspired, refreshed, challenged and, yes, frequently with changed lives!"
