Introduction to the cruise
Doulos Hope, meaning ‘servant of hope,’ is set to launch into service in 2023, sailing alongside her sister vessel, Logos Hope. This makes her the fifth of our vessels, destined to share knowledge, help and hope around the world, with the port communities she visits.
The ship is also the first of a planned fleet intended to be more regionally focused. Doulos Hope is expected to serve largely, but not exclusively, in the Southeast Asia area, where 70% of those who have not yet heard of God’s love are thought to live.
