Trip to Israel

My wife and I would like to go to Israel with our local church, however the cost of the trip is substantially greater than we can currently afford. $3000 each. We are looking for sponsors, so we would like for your prayers regarding this trip. Pray for our wisdom in finances, and for our decision to go. We've never tried to raise funds for something like this, so if anyone has experience in fund raising, please let me know. Blessings..
