At High Seas Expedition, kids explore the mighty
love of God on a journey that will change them forever! High Seas Expedition is filled with incredible Bible-learning experiences kids will see, hear and touch. Since everything is hands-on, kids might get a little messy. Be sure to send them in play clothes and safe shoes. Plus, we will help kids discover how to see evidence of God in everyday life something we call God Sightings. Parents and Grandparents are welcome to join us every day at 8:25 for our Floating Finale.
