Creator's Key Takeaways

Part of the difficulty is because the staff work 12 hours a day with schedule spanning all 24 hours of the day, 7 days a week for up to eight months at a time with no time off in between.

They're away from home and family for long periods of time, returning home for only two months, and then they're back on the cruise ship again.

Many do not know Jesus and are without hope.

We are here to remind them that Jesus loves them, that he desires to have a relationship with them.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pray about the situation with the crew members' schedules and spiritual needs.
Begin or leave Bible studies for crew members if possible.
