Jordan, facilitated by the President of the Catholic Center and Member of the
Board, Father Rifaat Bader.

this World Workshops for Religious Tourism in its 10th session, demonstrates

unique experience, a homogeneous mixture of tourist experiences mixed with the
authentic Jordanian spirit of its people with its churches and mosques.
