 New Bed and Breakfast Overlooks Ephesus Faith Tourism: Turkey has acquired a three story building in downtown Ephesus. Located on the main road in downtown, the new headquarters will provide much needed space for offices and other uses. Dr. Cathey is pleased with the location noting that it is only yards from the bus station, train terminal, the Apostle John's Tomb, and is close to many conveniences of the city.
Plans to renovate the former hotel and convert it into a Bed and Breakfast for tour groups are in the works. He estimates that as many as eighteen people will be able to stay in the facility once the remodeling is completed. One advantage to owning a Bed and Breakfast is that groups staying in Faith Tourism: Turkey's facilities will see a reduction in their overall out-of-pocket expenses for the tour. The B & B will also provide a homey atmosphere for travelers.
Now that the property is in his hands, Dr. Cathey is in need of volunteers to make the journey to Ephesus to assist in the renovations.
Dr. Cathey welcomes you with open arms to be a part of this project. Of course, any visit to Turkey will include opportunities to visit historical sites and meet the local people. We hope you will come. For more information please send us a message from our "Contact Us" page located on the menu to the left. We look forward to hearing from you and visting with you in Ephesus!

Proclamation Media LLC has agreed to develop and manage the new website for Faith Tourism Turkey. Dr. Cathey is entrusting Proclamation Media to introduce Faith Tourism Turkey to the world utilizing the Internet, where people are turning more than ever to gather information for just about everything. Creating a website for Faith Tourism Turkey seemed like a natural step for the young organization. A spokesman for Proclamation Media said that websites are becoming a "must have" for all types of businesses. "If you don't have a web presence your business will suffer," he said. No other media in the world gives one the capability to gather or disseminate up to the minute information on demand to such a broad audience The FaithTourismTurkey.com website will provide information about projects and trips, news from Turkey, a photographic journal, and more. Developers hinted that screensavers and online videos may be in the works. |

After a recent trip to Turkey Oklahoman Billie McDonald wrote to us here at Faith Tourism Turkey. She said, "Turkey, what a pleasant surprise to find such a beautiful country full of such warm, kind, and beautiful people. I had in mind that it would be like other Third World countries I had visited, but it is not. In eight days, I learned more history than I ever thought possible. The people won my heart and I will be going back in the spring and hopefully take another Team of tourists with me." Hosting people like Billie McDonald is the pleasure of Faith Tourism Turkey. Will you come? |
