Testimonials from Rhine Cruise Participants
“Please pass on to everyone at Principia associated with the Rhine cruise just how grateful we are for the hard work that went in to making it such a memorable experience. . . . There were so many highlights—in fact it seems the whole trip will be our own highlight for some time now. . . . A couple days after getting home, we looked at each other and said . . . we wish we were still there! Probably a good sign that we’re ready for more. . . .”
Mike and Linda Distel
“Once again you planned an amazing . . . trip. Bravo! Everything was perfect! It was just the right mix of time on the boat, excursions, and classes. I spent more time on the boat this trip than I did on the Danube trip, and I really liked that. It was a beautiful boat and it was fun to enjoy it. . . . Thank you for another spectacular . . . trip! It really was so enjoyable from start to finish. It couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you again for everything.”
Elsbeth Stewart
“My heart is brimming over with gratitude for your care and concern for every detail of our trip. As I reflect on the beauty and majesty of the art and palaces and cathedrals and castles and countryside, I think the one thing I was constantly feeling was the love and shepherding from you. We were so cared for every step of the way, even at our departure from the Paris airport, there was the Father-Mother Love expressed in your “guide” assuring our correct path to the plane. I so enjoyed meeting friends from the past and also dear new friends. The evening trip to the Eiffel Tower with its 10 o’clock “surprise” was enchanting! Again, thank you . . . for making 'Love's divine adventure' a pleasure for all of us.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of [the Rhine cruise]. This was my first cruise of any kind, and being a very successful independent traveler to places most people wouldn't go independently, I wondered how I'd like it. Well, it was nice being taken care of! . . . I'm looking forward to the announcement about the Mekong River trip.”
Mary Bothwell
“The tour was very enjoyable for me. I had never before been on a cruise, and I loved it! I think the highlights for me were the lectures by the Principia staff. Also, the planning and timing, which were very well done. Thanks to all of you.”
Lucielle Brownelle
“We enjoyed the cruise thoroughly!! Everything about it was wonderful—a superb boat, fantastic food, great talks, wonderful tours and of course a super group of people to be with and get to know. . . . Even the European Parliament opened its doors for us when the 'no record of your coming' turned into 'come in and enjoy!' So there you go—God governing all in such a harmonious manner. . . . [We] do want to be included in your next trip wherever it maybe. Keep us in mind and on your list.”
Cindy and David Kingsman
“We LOVED our cruise with you all. . . . I’m SO GRATEFUL for the timing of our trip, as well as all the folks who guided, fed, and nurtured us. . . .”
Lyn Kendrick
“Thanks again for all of your efforts . . . for making the Rhine cruise so wonderful. . . . As this was my first cruise, I was very impressed with everything. Meeting so many new people was a plus as well. . . . [We] really didn't want to come home. Thank you again.”
Mary Ellen MaGill
“It was just a week ago that [we] got home from our Cruise on the Rhine. I've been sharing many pictures and daily itineraries with the rest of the family, and I must say that, as we do, more and more wonderful experiences come out of our memories of the trip. Even all of the walking that we did doesn't seem so tiring now, and it’s even making me more grateful for the opportunity to prove Love’s presence. I think every single detail you all put together to make the whole experience so memorable was evidence of Mind’s omnipresence and omniscience. I will never forget it! It was truly awesome! That’s all I can say—AWESOME and THANK YOU!!”
Jean Bear
“It is hard to express our gratitude for the love, prayer, and hard work that you put into providing such a wonderful Rhine cruise for so many grateful Christian Scientists. It truly was an inspiration as well as so informative and fun. We loved making so many new, wonderful friends. Once again Principia has enriched our lives and expanded our horizons.”
Lyn and Don Zacher
“Just a little note to say a very BIG BIG ‘Thank you’ to you for all you did for us on the Rhine Cruise and the Paris visit. The arrangements were wonderful and, if I may say so, well thought out. There was always such a harmonious and happy atmosphere. For myself, it was not only a most enjoyable and unforgettable experience but something quite special. Thank you.”
