The last three spaces are open for our first ever Hawaii Fellowship Tour for Singles and Marrieds. Disciples from around the world will come together as we embark on this amazing journey for 12 nights from April 27 - May 9, 2014 aboard the beautiful Radiance of the Seas by Royal Caribbean.
Feel the gentle trade winds and experience the warm fellowship as we travel the Hawaiian Islands together from Honolulu to Nawiliwili, Kauai; Kona and Hilo (Big Island), and Lahaina, Maui. As an additional feature of our journey, we will experience 5 relaxing “sea days” before we port in beautiful Victoria and finally in Vancouver, British Columbia.
We will worship with the churches in Hilo, Maui and Oahu as they show us God’s magnificent creation in our ports of call. Devotionals and Bible study will also be a part of our journey on days that we are on board the ship at sea. The Hawaii churches are planning a singles event on Saturday before our cruise! The Vancouver Church has invited all who can to stay for the weekend and church on Sunday after the cruise.
