We are currently in the Carribbean enjoying life on the Logos Hope. We have already visited St Vincent, Grenada, Tobago, Trinidad, St Lucia and Barbados this year. In the coming weeks we will also go to Guyana in South America and Curacao before the end of 2009. Due to difficulties with maintaining this site due to internet unreliability, we are putting all our updated news on our blog- please see www.packwoodsonlogoshope.blogspot.com

We used to think that Logos Hope was a big ship!  Alongside a cruise liner in Barbados

About us

Hi, This is Steve, Heather, Liam and Kara. We are living onboard the ship Logos Hope.  We have a lovely cabin on the 8th deck of the ship ( see picture below) . The kids are loving life onboard and have made lots of friends.

After nearly 2 years of "project" getting the ship ready to sail, we sailed with the Logos Hope from Denmark in February 2009. The ship spent a number of months in Europe, visiting the Netherlands, Faroe Island, UK and Ireland - including our home port of Edinburgh. In July we sailed from Cork Ireland across the Atlantic to the Caribbean where we will be until May 2010.

Logos Hope

What is Logos Hope all about?

Logos Hope is a ship belonging to OM Ships International, an international Christian Charity Organisation. OMSI already operates 2 ships, the Logos II and the Doulos. Heather and I spent 2 1/2 years on Doulos between 95 - 97 before we had kids. The Logos Hope is a much bigger ship than Doulos and will be able to offer much more opportunities to people coming on board to find out about the ship and the message of hope that the ship is bringing.

 

What are we  doing?

 

Steve is Director of Corporate Services onboard  which means he is responsible for leading the team that supports all the business functions onboard such as IT, Finance, Administration and AV. He also is responsible for the operations on the visitor deck (deck 4) which includes the book fair.

 

Heather is the ship nurse, working in the clinic most day as well as being on call and tries to juggle that role with providing a stable  enviroment for the children.
