The Cornerstone Project

The CRETIO Foundation is resuming the trips to the Holy Land. The next trip on our schedule is the "Cornerstone Project", for Young Professionals, from July 18 to 26, 2023. Detailed information and registration HERE.

The Cornerstone Project is a travel experience to the Holy Land for Young Professionals. This Journey combines 3 aspects: personal development, professional growth, and spiritual deepening. This is a Pilgrimage to the Holy Land, but it is much more: is networking, human skills growth, reflection and growth. Young professionals come together to experience the Holy Land in a meaningful way.
