Which means you’ll get to know the hearts behind the music as you tap your feet to your favorite songs.

If the morning and evening activities aren’t enough, we’ll also enjoy special daytime performance showcases with each of our guest artists. These include the “Gospel Music Hymn Sing” hosted by Gerald Wolfe and a “Caribbean Christmas Jubilee” program featuring Booth Brothers, Legacy Five and Greater Vision. You’ll also love hearing from gospel songwriters like Aaron Wilburn, Rodney Griffin and Jim Brady who’ll share the “Stories behind the Songs” as well as hilarious “Road Stories” showcase featuring stories from the managers of the groups such as Michael Booth, Mark Trammell, Scott Fowler, Phil Collingsworth and Gerald Wolfe. You also won’t want to miss game shows involving your favorite artists and side-splitting comedy. The Gospel Music Celebration!™ offers entertainment for everyone.

In each of our ports of call, you’ll find any number of worthwhile excursions, including the pristine beaches of Turks and Caicos and the bustling cobblestone streets of San Juan.

Speakers & Entertainers

BOOTH BROTHERS

Booth Brothers are Gospel Music’s “Artist of the Year,” known for high energy, humorous and touching concerts. They show His love, grace and forgiveness through the songs God has given them to sing.

THE ERWINS

There is something captivating about the blending and swelling of sibling harmony. When that is combined with pure talent, and a servant’s heart for people, you have the incomparable ministry of The Erwins.

THE COLLINGSWORTH FAMILY

As Gospel Music’s “Mixed Group of the Year,” excitement, spiritual anointing, family-emphasis and musical excellence are what you can expect to find on the cruise with The Collingsworth Family.

GREATER VISION

Greater Vision is the most awarded trio in the history of Southern Gospel Music. You’ll enjoy their rendition of old “shape notes” style of singing, and their versions of the old standards of the church.

LEGACY FIVE

The rich four and five part harmony that Legacy Five has become noted for are the result of a masterful weaving together of five unique and versatile talents.

MARK TRAMMELL QUARTET

The mission of the Mark Trammell Quartet is to encourage the church and evangelize the lost through gospel music and the message of Christ and Him crucified.

Destined to happen many years before it ever took place, it’s been quite some time since the Gospel Music world has seen the merger of such a talented musical force like the Jim Brady Trio.

JIM BRADY TRIO

As He directs, TaRanda Greene is finding her wings and soaring by the grace and strength of the One who gave her His song to sing.

TARANDA GREENE

Aaron Wilburn brings the house down with laughter and has endeared himself to thousands of clean comedy fans with his own down-home brand of humor, as he talks about his southern roots, his family, children and his faith.

7-Day Cruise Itinerary

Few destinations boast as much tropical beauty or cultural diversity as the islands of the Caribbean. The colorful quilt-work of cities and ancient ruins fill a breathtaking backdrop of lush jungles, freshwater

caves, coral reefs, blue lagoons and white-sand beaches perfectly suited to relaxing and getting away.

DE PA RTI NG F ROM FORT L AU DE R DA L E, F LOR I DA SUNDAY, JANUARY 24, 2016

EMBARKATION: 11:30 A.M. – 2:30 P.M. / DEPART: 4:00 P.M.

DAY AT SE A MONDAY, JANUARY 25, 2016

GR A N D TU R K , TU R K S A N D CA ICOS TUESDAY, JANUARY 26, 2016, 8:00 A.M. – 3:00 P.M.Rumored to be the island in the New World where Christopher Columbus first made landfall in 1492, Grand Turk is a quintessential Caribbean paradise. Its soft sand beaches lie within swimming distance of amazing dive sites. A quarter-mile from shore, the ocean floor drops 7,000 feet along a protected reef, meaning these waters attract as many humpback whales, manta rays and blue marlin as they do divers. For the less adventurous, the rustic charm and historic buildings of Cockburn Town offer plenty to do and see.

S A N J UA N, PUE RTO R ICO WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27, 12:00 P.M. – 8:00 P.M.From its blue-hued cobblestone streets to the enormous Fort San Felipe El Morro citadel, entering the bustling Spanish colonial neighborhood of Old San Juan feels like stepping into the past. But there’s more to this island than history. The tropical rainforests of El Yunque aren’t far away. The diverse landscape offers both interior mountains and white-sand beaches, a chance to experience a big-city atmosphere while also enjoying jaw-dropping scenery.

PH I L I PSBU RG, ST M A A RTE N THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 2016, 8:00 A.M. – 3:00 P.M.Philipsburg, the capital of Dutch St. Maarten, combines its historical legacy with 21st century sophistication. Its waterfront has become a popular stop for cruise ships, as its main thoroughfares are lined with duty-free shopping, flowers galore and examples of West Indian architecture. The courthouse and two historic forts reveal Philipsburg’s strategic importance in this island’s history.

DAY AT SE A FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, 2016

H A L F MOON CAY, BA H A M AS SATURDAY, JANUARY 30, 8:00 A.M. – 3:00 P.M.Featuring two miles of white sand and breathtaking coral reefs, Half Moon Cay is a private island in the Bahamas chain and an ideal getaway for beach-lovers, snorkelers and nature enthusiasts. This 2,400-acre island is nestled amid the pristine beaches and blue waters of the Bahamas. Bypass the beach and explore the island interior—98 percent of which remains undeveloped and wild—to find nature trails, bird-watching hideaways and a restful wild bird sanctuary.
