ew home. The ship was about 40 minutes from where we were, so during that 40 minutes i was on the edge of my seat, in so much excitement. We were getting closer and closer and then we could see the very top of the ship. I was so over whelmed. We pulled up and I saw the Logos Hope right in front of my eyes. The second I saw it began to cry, I was filled with so much joy. On the decks and in front of the gangway were the crew, yelling and waving their flags. It was the biggest welcome i have ever seen. We unloaded our bags and walked toward the mass of yelling people. I was attacked by people with American flags and I got a huge hug from my ship big sister Angie Dutchess who is the perso
n who first told me about the ships. We gave hugs and then took our first steps onto the gangway that lead us onto the ship. We got inside and there was a tunnel of people waiting for us, giving us high fives and hugs. It was so amazing. I couldn't stop smiling. I was finally on the ship. Angie gave me a tour and showed me my room where she had decorated my walls with pictures. I got settled down and then went to dinner. We had dinner with our ship families, my ship mom is from south Africa and i have 4 ship brothers and 3 sh
ip sisters. We have dinner together every Tuesday. After dinner there was a welcoming party for us. They made a prayer tunnel and all of us from PST Koge walked through it and everyone prayed for us. I felt Gods love so much as I walk through the tunnel and people laid their hands on me. Gods presence was over flowing in that room. It was so amazing to walk through that tunnel and have all of those people praying. I could just feel their love for God. My first night on the ship was a blast. We danced, played games, and hung out. It was awesome to meet more new people and feel a part of the family on the Logos Hope. It was one of the best days of my life.
