As Christians, we believe that God calls us to meet with Jesus and allow him to change our lives. God is committed to us and, when we choose to follow him, we too must be committed - to God and to one another.

We'll be cruising the six 'C's, meeting people along the way who have had a life-changing encounter with Jesus. First of all there is the 'C' of Choice, then Courage, Call, Change, Commitment and Challenge. Just like the people we meet in the Bible stories about Jesus, we have choices to make, many of which will involve a great deal of courage. As Christians, we believe that God calls us to meet with Jesus and allow him to change our lives. God is committed to us and, when we choose to follow him, we too must be committed - to God and to one another. Often our choice challenges us to make a change which is well worth making, so don't miss out: step aboard as we sail away on The Adventure Cruise!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Adventure Cruise\u003c\/em\u003e contains all the essential ingredients for a successful, easy-to-run midweek or holiday club programme, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSongs: Songs that we learn as children stay with us right through our lives.
