TOUR OVERVIEW:
Mount Sinai Research Expedition
Explore the Biblically rich archaeology of Saudi Arabia with Dr. Tommy Colie & Pam Laurion
The foundational narrative of the Exodus, as outlined in the second book of the Torah of Yahweh, contains some of the most vital and momentous accounts in the Torah. The quest to uncover the archaeological and geological evidence of the Israelites’ liberation from Egypt, Moses’ revelation at Mount Sinai, and the nation of Israel’s ensuing desert wanderings have captured the hearts and minds of some of history’s most brilliant scholars and explorers. Cartographers, archaeologists, scientists, adventurers, historians, and disciples of all backgrounds have sought out the genuine locations depicted in ancient manuscripts. Finally, with the advent of state-of-the-art technology and the ever-increasing political stability of the region, the Northwest corner of Arabia has begun to divulge its buried secrets. This tour has been designed to include time at the end for further investigations—in which you partake! You will be a first-hand witness to the expansion and revealing of the region’s antiquities—which have remained behind the veil until this time.
Join discoverers and archaeological investigators Dr. Tommy Colie and Pam Laurion on an intensive and rich exploration to see the newest discoveries as they pertain to the Biblical texts while assisting in any new research that needs to be completed. The tour cost (not including airfare) is $3,849 per person (sharing a double room). We can match roommates, or you can also pay the price for a single room. See the price grid, on page 9. We suggest an itinerary out of Washington, Dulles, round-trip that you can purchase, or try to match the dates out of your own home city. At the time of brochure printing, the round-trip air ticket from Dulles is $1,090 per person.

If you are looking to take a more adventurous route into the wilderness, our Saudi Arabia Adventure package offers an alternative path designed for tour participants who crave more activity!
The option below will highlight Moses’ time in the land of Midian and the Exodus crossing sites and includes exploration of the real Mount Sinai by hiking and camping along the same route that Moses may have taken.
Partaking in classic fellowship and learning at the main sites throughout the tour but with extra activities added in, as desired! If you enjoy an activity level that is different from your spouse or travel companion, you have the option to select different activities. You may choose the adventure that is perfect for you! The overnight is $650 per person, which includes a special breakfast, a dinner, either 2 nights or 1 night of camping in private tents, and one climbing guide for 3-5 climbers (per guide). The cost is the same if you opt to stay one night or two, as our expenses are tied to the camp set up, rather than the number of nights spent there by individuals.

Pam Laurion
Messianic Delaware
Lewes, Delaware
Pamela Laurion a former educator and a judicial consultant for the State of Delaware, has taught Hebrew studies and ancient Hebrew script for the past 15 years to various congregations throughout Delaware. Because she was fascinated with Mount Sinai and the Split Rock archaeological sites in Saudi Arabia, she traveled with Living Passages to visit the sites in 2020 returning to Saudi Arabia several more times. Pam was able to photograph and document new discoveries and teach about the newly discovered inscriptions and artifacts. Recently Pam’s discoveries at these sites were presented to a team at The Museum of the Bible in Washington D.C. and for the past 3 years, she has traveled and presented her experiences nationwide. Pam’s travels throughout the Middle East- Egypt, Jordan, Israel, and Saudi Arabia give her a wide knowledge base for the archaeological sites in the Exodus story. In addition, Pam teaches regularly at her Messianic Fellowship. Pam believes the Saudi Arabian sites for Mount Sinai (Jabal al-Lawz) and the Split Rock at Horeb, are arguably some of the most important archaeological sites in the world.
