Island Reach
A fleet of privately owned vessels ministering to each of the major island groups in Greece.
Visiting and encouraging lonely, isolated believers on the islands of Greece, praying for the islands and witnessing one-on-one.
Sharing – Encouraging – Supporting
Greece boasts the 11th longest coastline in the world along with 227 inhabited islands. Reaching the inhabitants of these islands and coastal regions through traditional mission strategies presents a challenge.
We envision a fleet of vessels reaching the wind-swept and spiritually barren islands of Greece, sharing the love of God, and strengthening local fellowships through teaching and encouragement. We will accomplish this goal through the various gifts of each boater.
On the island of Evia, Jerry and Ilona and their family have relocated to be part of the vision.

Partner With US
We would love to partner with more believers and sailors who are committed to reaching the islands of Greece with the gospel of Jesus Christ. All you need is a sense of adventure and a servants-heart for people living and working on the Greek islands and coastal ports.
Come, join the fleet and let’s go make some waves!
