A Home on the Water — A Mission in Motion

From the very beginning, Sailing Doulos has been about more than just sailing. The word “Doulos” means servant, and that’s the heart of our mission—to serve, love, and bring hope to coastal communities through the love of Jesus.

We believe God is calling us to live aboard full-time, taking the gospel and practical help wherever the wind and His Spirit lead. To make this next step possible, we’re raising funds to purchase a vessel that will become both our family home and ministry base on the water.

We Found A Possible FIT!

After months of searching, we’ve found a beautiful, blue-water-ready, three-cabin vessel that fits the mission perfectly. Her asking price is $77,500.

We hope to raise enough to move forward with the purchase of this vessel. In the meantime we’re stepping out in faith with an offer – all that we have, trusting God to open the right doors. We are committing everything we have to this opportunity and praying for others to come alongside us.
