"Cruise With A Purpose"
For anyone who has listened to the Cruising Authority talkshow via the internet, for even a short time, knows that Barry Vaudrin is passionate about the subject of cruising.



As a former entertainer, cruise director, and one who has held various other positions onboard, he knows the subject and industry quite well.



In this book Vaudrin shares from his heart a dream he has had for many years. He envisions a scenario where people can travel on cruises and once they reach a port, participate in a short term mission project ministering to the people of the port community.



Today there is a growing... More > market for "Christian" cruises which normally involve nationally known ministries, speakers, evangelists, etc. Vaudrin's cruise concept, called Cruise With A Purpose, differs in that passengers get hands on, real life experience while they interact with the local residents in varying scenarios. They not only get a cruise vacation, but the opportunity to give of themselves to others less fortunate while sharing the love of God in a multitude of ways.



As one who has been involved with short term mission projects since 1985 I understand the importance these trips can have in ones life. The amazing fact is that while giving to others, we probably get as much, if not more, in return.



I would highly recommend this book to mission organizers, pastors or anyone who wants to do something to help others in a manner that is "outside the box."

Cruising With A Purpose is a concept who's time has come and it's up to us to spread the word and get others involved in this highly worthy project.



God Bless you Barry!
