Selcuk Trip Overview
Let me offer you a very spiritual day in the city of Ephesus, the chief of the seven churches of Asia Minor, where two apostles Paul and John came. It is a biblical city where St. Paul wrote his first letter to the Corinthians and where St. John addressed one of his 7 letters to. The Virgin Mary came and spent her last years here as well.
While walking the streets of this ruined city today, we will imagine that Paul also once walked these same stones. While seating in the great theater, we also might hear the shouts of the Ephesians and the silversmith Demetrius ”Great is Artemis of Ephesus”.
