The First Annual Girls’ Getaway Cruise

Women, let’s face it. We sacrifice every day – for our families, our churches and our communities. It’s a God-given privilege and a way for us to serve others as Christ did. Yet, even Christ found times of solitude and rejuvenation. He needed to get in a boat and get away from the crowds, at times. Don’t get me wrong. Jesus loved the crowds; he ministered to the crowds, healed them, taught them and showed them the way to eternal life.

We women love “the crowds” too. We minister, bring healing, teach and point the way to Jesus, but we need time away, too.

That’s the purpose behind the Girl’s Get-a-way Cruise. It’s more than a great cruise. It’s a time to rejuvenate.

Don’t put it off any longer. The cruise is selling fast. There are less than 80 cabins remaining for this remarkable retreat.

An extended weekend retreat, you’ll only be gone four days and three nights. Set sail from Port Canaveral, Florida on Thursday, Nov. 10, 2005. Spend a day at Nassau, Bahamas and a fun-filled day and night at sea, and then you'll be home by Sunday evening, Nov. 13, 2005.
