Happy Holidays from the JTBNA Team
Dear friends and partners,
As we bid farewell to the most difficult year for our industry and for most of us personally, we are thankful for the support that we have had from colleagues, friends and family.
With news of a vaccine and the trends of increased bookings, we are cautiously optimistic that our industry will be coming back strong and that 2021 will be a year of regenerative travel.
We want to take this time to wish you good health, happiness and joy in the new year and look forward to building back better and stronger together, more sustainably, more conscientious for our benefit and for the benefit of our children and the future.

Featured Webinar
A Journey through Bethany Beyond the Jordan
Earlier this month our faith-based tourism manager, Zina Ammari, hosted a webinar with a special guest speaker, Rustom Mkhjian, the director general of the Baptism Site Commission. Bethany Beyond the Jordan, where Christianity began, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site where John the Baptist baptized Jesus and Elijah ascended to heaven in a chariot of fire. By watching the recording you will immerse yourself in the stories of the Bible that took place in the east of River Jordan, and learn more about why this significant holy site is of great importance for religious scholars globally.
