[Kiel, Germany]The sun has been shining for several weeks over Kiel now and as summer is approaching, it's time to say goodbye. For the farewell event called HopeFest, the Logos Hope opened its doors during a weekend. 2 days to thank God for our stay in Kiel, 2 days to thank the churches and the people who helped us and supported us financially or by donations (like a farmer who we gave us 5 tons of potatoes over 6 months). From Kiel, Lubeck and Hamburg, the visitors could appreciate the cultural diversity of the ship’s company through the booths that represented each group of nationalities. The afternoons were highlighted by biblical dramas, dances and magic shows.

I was so happy to have a glimpse of how the ship's life will be soon: with the decoration and the public, I have the impression of living on a new ship. And that’s really exciting.
