Down Ancient Paths Down Ancient Paths is a faith inspired award wining travel program in partnership with Ambrose Unive

A professionally resourced and operated travel study program for the third millennium which provides students enrolled in academic programs at various post-secondary institutions and adult life long learners with an imaginative opportunity to experience aspects of the history, theology, spirituality and geography of diverse traditions of ancient Christianity. Our faith inspired group travel progra

ms add an adventurous context for lifelong learning either for credit or personal enrichment in which clergy and laypersons of all Christian churches can deepen their understanding of and appreciation for the ancient non-western origins of Christianity. Our faith inspired group travel studies programs are designed to stimulate all participants to reflect on the interrelationship between younger traditions of western Christianity and their host cultures while observing their ancient counterparts which continue to exist in cultures shaped by the dominating influence of non-Christian belief systems. Down Ancient Paths faith inspired group travel programs foster a climate of ecumenical conversation designed to enhance a spirit of unity which transcends the differences of belief and practice characteristic of Christianity in its globally diverse forms of expression.
