It wasn’t the typical group of tourists visiting Israel this week. Afshin Javid, an Iranian Muslim who converted to Christianity over 20 years ago, led a group of mostly Iranians ex-Muslims to tour the Holy Land. Based out of Canada, the USA and Germany, the Iranian Christian converts bless the existence of the state of Israel and fervently believe that the Jewish people must return to their homeland.
“I don’t think we’ve ever had such a large of group of former Muslim Iranians visit Israel like this. There are 37 participants on this trip,” Javid told Tazpit Press Service in an interview.
“We are here to bless the land and the Jewish people,” said Javid, who with his group donated a $20,000 check for aliyah to Israel during their trip.
