Welcome, Join us February 5-12, 2012 for OPC's Western Caribbean Cruise on the Celebrity Solstice!
We invite members and friends of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church to share the fellowship of a relaxing cruise with fellow believers and the opportunity to increase their knowledge of “How to Study the Bible”. This trip will combine the beauty of God’s created world and the instruction in His Word of truth, and these two will be shared in the company of fellow Christians.
