WHY NAHPA IS SENDING YOUNG LEADERS

UNDERSTAND

Build a Biblical and informed understanding of Israel.
Explore the biblical, historical, and cultural roots of Israel and the Jewish people. Learn to recognize antisemitism, understand how it appears in our communities, and develop a thoughtful, Scripture-grounded response as a Christian leader.
Experience

Encounter Israel beyond the headlines.
Walk the land, meet Israelis, engage with Jewish history and culture, and hear firsthand perspectives. Develop a deeper understanding of modern Israel, the challenges it faces, and why standing against antisemitism and building Christian-Jewish relationships matter.
Multiply

Return equipped to educate, advocate, and lead.
Bring what you learn back to your church, campus, and community. Become a young leader prepared to combat antisemitism, communicate biblical pro-Israel values, educate others with clarity, and strengthen the relationship between the Hispanic Christian community and Israel.
