Logos II :: St johns, Antigua (IMG_5971sml.jpg)English/Espanol

After nearly two decades spanning 350 port visits in 81 countries, and more than 10 million visitors, Logos II’s service has come to an end. Indeed, the ship was expected to ‘retire’ last year, but with her replacement Logos Hope not yet ready, Logos II was given a new lease of life, embarking on a final literature distribution tour of ports in the Caribbean over the first half of 2008.

The gangways closed to the public for the last time on July 14 in Port of Spain, Trinidad. It is fitting that the ship ended her service in the part of the world where she was best known and much loved as “the book ship.” Over the years, God’s provision and faithfulness have been clearly evident. Thank you Logos II!

Please pray for the sale of Logos II. Pray also for the crew and safe trip as the ship heads toward Malta.
 

¡GRACIAS LOGOS II!

Después de casi dos décadas, en las que visitó 350 puertos en 81 países, con más de diez millones de visitantes, el servicio del Logos II ha llegado a su fin. De hecho, se esperaba que el barco se “retire” el año pasado, pero el Logos Hope, su reemplazante, todavía no estaba listo, por lo que se le dio al Logos II un tiempo más de vida, embarcándose en el tour de distribución de literatura final viajando por el Caribe durante el primer semestre del año 2008.

Las escaleras cerraron sus puertas por última vez el pasado 14 de Julio en Puerto de España, Trinidad. Era apropiado que el barco tuviera el cierre de su servicio en la región del mundo donde era más conocido y amado como “El Barco del Libro”. A través de los años, la provisión y fidelidad de Dios ha sido evidente. ¡Gracias Logos II!

Por favor ora por la venta del Logos II. Ora también por el viaje seguro de la tripulación mientras el barco se dirige a Malta.
