On board with us now is Gretchen Crecelius, a lifelong resident of
Central Florida.
Gretchen graduated from Stetson University with a BA in
accounting and later in life, became a Florida certified teacher
spending most of her classroom time in Christian schools. She is
an avid hiker and walker, and has recently taken up yoga. General
aviation is her passion, she seems to always have an eye in the sky.
Everything changed when a dear friend encouraged her to take a
trip to Croatia. She returned home with a new love in her heart.
A love for a very understated country with an unspoiled pristine
beauty. A country of unique historical value. A country with a
rugged coastline that gives way to a peaceful, dazzling blue sea
dotted with islands. The climate is fairly arid and quite
comfortable. A safe, beautiful and relaxing environment to take in
and explore, learn, grow and recharge. As if this wasn’t enough,
the food is a delicious array of healthy, unprocessed delights
similar to a Mediterranean diet, enhanced by local wines.
The health and wellness journey continued by visiting Israel
where history and science back the validity of the Bible. Gifts
From Above has traditionally utilized the knowledge of well
versed pastors and a seasoned guide who allow the
traveler to experience God’s love and truth. Small group travel
allows individual growth that touches the heart, mind and soul as
you experience first hand God’s undeniable mighty work
concerning His chosen nation. There is no other way to
experience the Bible, the Glory of God and the redeeming and
transforming work of Jesus than by following His footsteps all the
way to the cross. Encounter a love like no other by visiting His
burial and resurrection sites. Your heart will be overwhelmed and
the gratitude felt will move you to tears.

Yes, my friend, Jesus is the son of the Most High God. You are
His chosen. Gladly accept Jesus as your Savior and place Him as
Lord of your life. Continue to study His word, meditate on Him
and commune with Him daily. Make plans for your spiritual
pilgrimage to the Lands of the Bible and walk where Jesus walked.
