EGYPT: MYTH AND ETERNITY

Egypt has long been a land of endless fascination and a favorite travel destination. Millennia-old monuments sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including Giza's colossal Pyramids and Great Sphinx as well as Luxor's hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs.

Join Elisabeth as she takes us on a historical tour of Egypt, exploring the dynasties of the pharaohs and their pyramids. Learn about the religion of early prehistoric Egypt…its gods and goddesses, myths and icons…and what was done to ensure a successful journey into the underworld and eternity.

Elisabeth has been to Egypt a number of times and her lecture will explore not only ancient Egypt but also the modern country it has become. Come join us for a tour of this magnificent and mysterious land.
