The Plan

There have been some recent changes to our original plan. We had hoped to spend four months together as a travelling community and to travel overland all the way to Jerusalem from the UK. It’s something we would still love to do someday.

From the beginning of this project we have been aware that it is important to remain fluid and open to change. More so, to seek and embrace change.

We have become aware, as our departure date draws nearer, that many people are interested in joining us in the Middle East but are unable to join us for the whole four month period. There are in fact many more people who would love to join us for between two weeks and a month. This means that we will no longer be travelling overland as a group – though anyone wishing to should go for it!

So far, the idea of having a solid community spirit in which to learn has been essential for the ethos of this project. It seems now though that it would be a shame to concentrate on small group when there are so many more people who would be able to benefit form the project.

We will be arranging programmes in line with our goals to suit everyone who would like to experience time in the Middle East regardless of how much time they have.

These programmes will begin from September 1st and go on until December.

People are still very welcome to join us for the whole three month period.

People are welcome to join us from September 1st in Jerusalem and are welcome to remain in the small steps group for the duration of our time in the region and there will be a full programme of learning and volunteering activities.
