The DOULOS is COMING to town!!!!!!!

Hello all!

Have you heard about the Doulos ship?? It's coming to town on the 11th October!!

Here's a quick snap shot of the Doulos. If you want more information you can visit http://www.doulosdownunder.org.au/Page.aspx?pid=197

So...

What is it??
Doulos was purchased in 1977 by GBA Ships e.V. (previously known as Good Books for All), a private, non-profit, charitable organisation registered in Germany.
Over 20 million visitors have been welcomed on board for tours, programmes and visits to the floating book fair. With stops in over 500 ports of call, this unique ship has visited more than 100 countries in including Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and many island nations.

Doulos is recognised in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's oldest active ocean-going passenger ship.

Its purpose?
Doulos visits port cities throughout the world, supplying vital literature resources, encouraging inter-cultural understanding, training young people for more effective life and service, promoting greater global awareness, providing practical aid and sharing a message of hope in God wherever there is opportunity.
