WH IL E CRUISING CA RIBBE AN WATERS
Dear friends,
You’re invited to sail with us for an unforgettable week in
the Eastern Caribbean for the Gospel Music Celebration!™
Get ready for a cruise unlike any vacation you may have
experienced in the past or on any other gospel music cruises.
Here you’ll relax in the five-star elegance of Holland America’s
ms Eurodam under the bright Caribbean sun. It will warm your
skin while your favorite Gospel music artists warm your soul.
Holland America Line and their mid-sized vessels are known
for the utmost in luxury, which means attentive service and
fewer passengers—say goodbye to the enormous crowds of most other cruise lines. Surrounded
by the stunning blue waters of the Caribbean, superb on-board cuisine, and unparalleled personal
attention, we’ll sail to gorgeous ports of call like Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos, San Juan Puerto Rico,
Philipsburg (St. Maarten), and the private island Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas.
In addition to the sun, sea and world-class accommodations, you’ll be joined by some of the biggest
names in Gospel Music, including Booth Brothers, Collingsworth Family, Greater Vision, Legacy Five,
Mark Tramell Quartet, The Erwins, Jim Brady Trio, TaRanda Greene and comedian Aaron Wilburn. We’ll
start each day with encouraging devotions, then conclude the day with full-length evening concerts.
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 & 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. Gospel Music Celebration!™ takes
you to some of the most picturesque locations in the world with uplifting entertainment and the chance
to interact with your favorite musicians—all aboard a cruise line known for luxury.
The Gospel Music Celebration!™ isn't just another gospel music cruise, it is an experience of a
lifetime—one that will leave you standing, singing, rejoicing and applauding. We have a special seat
and stateroom reserved just for you!

BOOTH BROTHERS
THE COLLINGSWORTH FAMILY

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.
As Gospel Music’s “Mixed Group

musical excellence are what you

with The Collingsworth Family.

old standards of the church.
LEGACY FIVE
MARK TRAMMELL QUARTET
THE ERWINS
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.
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.
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.
JIM BRADY TRIO
TARANDA GREENE
AARON WILBURN
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.
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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
