Since 1970, OM’s Ship Ministry has brought the world’s largest floating book fairs to nearly 500 individual ports in more than 150 countries. Over the last five decades, more than 49 million visitors have come aboard our vessels.

Purchased in 2004, Logos Hope is OM’s largest ship. After undergoing a complete renovation that transformed her from a car ferry, Logos Hope launched into active service in February 2009. Today, Logos Hope visits each port for several weeks at a time and opens the gangways to hundreds and sometimes thousands of visitors each day. On average, over one million visitors have been welcomed on board every year! The floating book fair offers over 5,000 titles, providing many visitors their first-ever opportunity to purchase quality educational literature, at discounted prices.

OM's Ship Ministry launched Doulos Hope in 2023. Meaning 'Servant of Hope', she brings many fresh and exciting advantages to our ministry. This smaller, agile vessel can operate in shallower waters and access ports that have been beyond the reach of her sister ship, Logos Hope. She is expected to serve largely in East Asia and Pacific regions. The ship has six decks with a brand-new visitor experience area, bookfair and café.
