Description
Listen! Can you hear the howler monkey screeching and insects buzzing? Look! Do you see a sloth hanging from a tree and a jaguar crouching, ready to pounce? Smell! Is that the aroma of tropical flowers wafting through the air? Touch! Do you feel soft grass under your feet and gentle rain on your skin? Taste! Is that delicious milk from a coconut and exotic spices from the rainforest?
Join us in a world of wonder that will delight our senses while captivating our hearts and minds at The Great Jungle Journey: An Epic Cruise from Genesis to Revelation. We will cruise through jungle rivers, making stops at seven ports of call along the way - each starting with a C. These represent seven key biblical events - the 7 C's of History.
- Day 1: Creation – The first C takes us back to the beginning of time and the creation of the universe when it was all good. Did the universe start with a big bang, or did God create it?
- Day 2: Corruption and Catastrophe – Next, Adam sinned, which affected his descendants who were so wicked that God sent a global flood for judgement for their sins.
- Day 3: Confusion – The fourth C checks out the events that began at the tower of Babel. Can this be where all the people groups originated from?
- Day 4: Christ and the Cross – At these stops, we realize once again that man is sinful and needs a Savior. Hallelujah, God provides one in his Son!
- Day 5: Consummation – The last C shows the thrilling conclusion to history when all goes back to very good again, and - best news ever - God wins against sin and Satan!
Excitement and adventure await from the first minute of each day when kids meet in travel groups. The groups gather at the Jungle Jam Assembly with a high-energy beginning that includes wacky intros, lively songs, a Mission Moment, a daily drama, and prayer. The drama follows a jungle river cruise that plans to make stops at different ports of call but faces a catastrophe that affects the plan, resulting in lots of unexpected rainforest adventures.
