SEE THE HOLY LAND FOR $50

Would I lie to you?

I am leading a pilgrimage to the Holy Land from December 1 to 10. Cost: $2,800 which includes air fare, hotel (2 to a room), most meals and air-conditioned local transport for sight-seeing. Great deal, eh? What better way to see the Holy Land than with a Jesuit priest - who looks like a Jew?




But in case you feel you can't commit to the $2,800 (plus a couple of hundred for taxes, tips and buying presents - be realistic) there is an alternative.

We are having a raffle. ("We" being the Xavier Society for the Blind) and the First Prize is two (2!) tickets on the pilgrimage. Yup, air fare, hotel, meals, etc (See above).

Second Prize is $1,000 and Third Prize is $500.

Only 250 tickets are being sold, and each ticket is $50. If you win the First Prize and don't wish to go, it IS transferrable - you can give it to someone, or turn it in to the Xavier Society for a tax credit for the full value and we will take two blind people who would not otherwise have been able to go.

Call and buy a ticket using your credit card (212) 473-7800, or send an email so we can hold a ticket for you and send us a check

Drawing will be held on September 15, the day of our Golf Outing.

What?!? You don't know about our Golf Outing? See the post at the top of the page.

And good luck!
