Jim and Stacie

Jim and Stacie have been missionaries in various countries for the past 30 years. They are now based in the eastern port town of Fajardo in Puerto Rico.  They are using a cruising sailboat in the Caribbean Sea between Puerto Rico and the nearby Virgin Islands. Retreats, cruises, fishing trips, and sailing training are part of outreach and discipleship ministries.

Couples’ retreats – Jim & Stacie desire to schedule regular small-group sailing retreats where struggling couples can enjoy mutual encouragement with other couples who need marriage enrichment.

Missions trips – S/V Renewal is perfect for hosting other ministry sailors, specifically our coworkers with Maritime Ministries.  Sometimes for joint ministry outreach in the islands and sometimes for fellowship/strategizing aboard.

Gap-Year high school or college students training for foreign missions are welcome to come to Puerto Rico to learn to sail and liveaboard Renewal as they learn about and experience cross-cultural ministry.
