Are you ready for the adventure of a lifetime? Begin your faith journey with a dramatic rescue and finish with eternal glory. Five Bible stories focus on Jesus' work for His beloved children.
Day 1
Bible Story: Baby Moses Rescued (Exodus 2:1–10)
Take Home Point: God takes care of us through Jesus, our Savior.
Bible Memory Verse: 1 Peter 5:7, “[Cast] all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.”
Location: Visit Falls National Park. The Big River cuts through a rock escarpment only six meters wide.
Animal Connector: The Kob is a medium sized antelope species which hides in the water or reeds to escape from predators.
Day 2
Bible Story: Crossing the Red Sea (Exodus 14:10–29)
Take Home Point: Jesus rescues us from our enemies—sin, death, and the devil.
Bible Memory Verse: Psalm 18:2, “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer.” PK: “The Lord is my rock.”
Location: Jinja (Literally, “rock” or “place of flat rocks.”) One of the few places you can cross the Big River on foot. Launching spot for river adventures.
Animal Connector: Hippos live along the full length of the Big River. While they may appear to be cute, at the same time they can be extremely dangerous.

Bible Memory Verse: Matthew 5:14–16, “You are the light of the world. . . . Let your light shine before others.” PK: “Let your light shine.”
