About this trip

40 years after its Broadway debut, the Les Miserables stage musical has been seen by over 130 million people worldwide in 53 countries and in 22 languages. It shows no signs of slowing down.   There’s literally something for everyone in Les Misérables. It’s an epic musical about passion, destruction, revenge, poverty and hope all set against the French revolution. It’s a relatable story about redemption and survival coupled with a goosebump-inducing score. With some of the most well-known, memorable and loved songs in musical history – including “I Dreamed A Dream”, “On My Own”, “Do You Hear The People Sing?” and “One Day More”  Set in 19th century France, Les Misérables follows the life of Jean Valjean – an ex-convict who seeks redemption despite being hunted for decades by his rival and ex-guard Javert after breaking parole. In his quest for absolution, Jean Valjean agrees to take care of Cosette – the daughter of tragic factory worker Fantine – changing his life forever. The pair travel across France avoiding the wrath of Javert until they find themselves in Paris during the French revolution. Despite the social and political struggle, there is love, passion and courage to be found. But dreams can be broken and adoration unrequited. So how will it end for these poor souls?  Run time: 2 hours and 55 minutes, including one intermission. Recommended for ages 10 and up. This production contains the use of strobe lights, haze, fog, open flame and blank-firing guns.

About the Show

Your purchase is non-refundable, but transferable. Approximately 2-3 weeks before the show, our intent is to mail (via USPS) tickets to all adult purchasers and to put MLC student tickets into the student mailboxes. Students may sell or give theirs to another MLC student. Others may sell or give their spot to another WELS/ELS member. Please advise steve@fathersworldtours.com of any such transfers (including new attendee full name, email address, address, and cell) so we know who should be on our "Roll Call/Check In List".

Cancellations & Transfer

It was awesome! So well planned, perfectly timed itineraries, wonderful camaraderie, comfortable accommodations, excellent meal choices/provisions.  Thank you Steve. Can't wait till the next one.

Autumn in New England

We enjoyed the people, sights food, bus, and accomodations. 

We had a wonderful time and great accommodations. Tour guide very knowledgeable. 

Steve nailed it! Sharing our days with old and new Christian friends was special. Starting our days with God’s Word set the tone for our explorations. The state motto theme and hymns tied them all together. We saw fall colors and lots of incredible nature sites in New England. We learned about/explored historical places as well. The hotel accommodations were comfortable and complementary breakfasts were appreciated. Steve planned many delicious lunches and fabulous dinner meals- lobster in Maine doesn’t get much better! All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our time in New England thanks to Father’s World Tours! 

I loved it from beginning to end. The leaders were fun, thoughtful, anticipated our every need, and smart about the places we visited. They always gave us ample time at sites and understood our interest in learning but also enjoying having time to peruse the gift shops. I knew none of my fellow travelers at all (though connections abounded), but by the end, I felt I had made 12 new friends. Thank you so much! 

MN Wildlife & Waterfalls

Wow, weather could have been a negative factor but every scheduled event brought fun, good fellowship and sights of beauty, nature's amazing qualities and reminders that God's creation is to be enjoyed.

I have always had on my bucket list a visit to Branson.  I loved the David at the Sight and Sound Theater and the opportunity to worship in the glass chapel.  Steve runs a tight ship so we make use of every minute.  A great weekend trip!

Weekend in the Ozarks

We had a good time.. good fellowship and food and devotion

The Ozark trip was a fantastic experience filled with memorable shows and scenic sights. The weekend was thoughtfully planned, offering a great mix of activities, relaxing rest stops, and enjoyable food along the way. Everything was well-organized, making it a fun and smooth journey from start to finish.  Thanks to our van drivers who made the trip even more enjoyable. 

Thoroughly enjoyable trip!  Did a lot in a short period of time

Great trip/tour.  Leaders and guides were very knowledgeable about areas we toured.   All was very organized, especially box lunches, and pies.    Food and restaurant choices were great.  Fun group to socialize with.  
A little more hiking would have been nice, but the weather didn't always cooperate.  However, the group leaders came up with great alternative sights and places to see.
Thank You for a wonderful experience!!!

Wonderful trip.  The food was great as was the hotel.
Enjoyed the people I was with. Our drivers were very capable and also fun!

Extraordinary Waterfall & Wildlife tour.  Beautiful sights along Lake Superior as well & very nice hotel accommodations. 

The trip was very well organized and we had 3 professors with us all the time to teach and guide us through both countries.  Steve bends over backwards making sure everyone is there and provides us with tour guides.  A wonderful way to see the world.  We had devotions every day and were able to personalize our visit by going to our mission church.  An excellent trip!!

I See London, I See France

All we had to do was show up and follow Steve. Everything was well planned for the pace of the group. We saw many beautiful places and things, heard beautiful music, had historical presentations on the way to prepare us for what we would experience, and had some free time to explore and wander.
Morning devotion started each day right.
Everyone was friendly and we loved every minute of it.

Well planned Christian tour of England and France.  Time for each event was calculated almost to the minute.  The hotel accomodations were as well as can be expected in the areas we were.  Booklets that came with the tour had much information that can still be used after we come home.  Plus the booklets will help with the pictures that were taken 

We had a great time. All of our connections, ticket, and timed entrances were pre-arranged. Besides seeing all of the tourist sites along the way, we joined in worship at our WELS mission in England. Our tour guides filled us in with great background information. We only had 3 different lodging locations for our 18 day trip. I appreciated that because we were packing up only a few times. Each hotel provided a breakfast spread that was delicious. It was nice to have most of our supper meals on our own. This gave us a chance to explore the communities and culture and relax. I look forward to choosing my next Father's World Tours trip!

This was a wonderful trip for us. It was well done with great places to visit. The daily devotions on the bus were a true treasure. Our sincere thanks to the leaders for all of work.

Outstanding! Excellent pacing of the trip. Good balance between seeing the many, many historical and scenic sites and having time to explore on your own. Steve obviously cares deeply for those who participate on his tours. Highly recommend for an excellent blend of sightseeing and Christian fellowship.

Would do additional tours with FWT in a heartbeat.

Traveling with fellow Christians to see the wonders of God’s world is special. Steve arranges everything and takes good care of us! He has historical experts to give us background information about the places we visit, and we hear God’s world daily! We stay in lovely hotels with daily breakfasts. We can’t wait for our next trip with Father’s World Tracel! 

We had a great time. The itinerary was well thought out but could be flexible depending on the particular circumstances. The accommodations were excellent to the point of even having breakfast included every day. We met some new people along the way and got reacquainted with some folks we had met previously. The places that we visited were historic, iconic to the area, and moving - all in all unforgettable.  It was challenging to dine on our own in France, but we persevered and had some delicious meals and some great wine! Good times, good food, good people...a good trip!!

Christian based travel.  Well organized & planned.  Took all the stress off the travelers.    We saw far more sites than we could have if we planned this on our own.  It included all  entrance fees for tours and breakfast was included daily.  I would recommend this tour highly.

I had a great trip! Accommodations and food were great! Visited and saw a variety of things. 

The sites and schedule were thoughtfully arranged. Great group with which to tour. Well organized.

Our leaders/drivers were so very helpful and knowledgeable of the areas we visited!  Fun,Fun,Fun!!

Best of the Black Hills

What a great vacation and a great group of people.  I loved most of the sites we visited.  Of the ones I would skip if I did this trip again were the corn palace and the shopping in Deadwood.  The Deadwood shopping may have been better in prime season.  I would have rather gone through the museum in Deadwood.  A very interesting town.
Steve, you were great.  Your planning, frequent stops, changing the plan to work around the weather were all superb.  The daily devotions were great.
I will certainly consider traveling with you again.
Gloria Schaible

First time traveling with a small group and the experience was great.  The trip offered flexibility, yet planned excursions with options for hiking, relaxing or sightseeing.  Truly enjoyed the fellowship! Unique dining experiences. Can't wait for the next trip.

Sun and Fun In Phoenix

We had a great time on this trip. It was nice to get away from a Wisconsin winter, if only for a few days (and we did see snow in Arizona one day!).  The accommodations were excellent as we had plenty of room to relax and unwind during non-scheduled time during the tour (and created a very specific memory for me!). Steve Balza's attention to detail, and his willingness to change the schedule to better suit the weather forecast of the day, was very much appreciated. We were able to see lots of sights in the Phoenix area as well as meet up with some friends who live in the area.  Steve tries very hard to make sure every guest's needs are being met to the best of his ability!  We look forward to another tour with Father's World Tours!

Condo stay at Legacy Golf Resort in Phoenix was very comfortable and great amenities including the restaurant on sight. It was great getting to know everyone on this small group tour- we loved it! The daily devotions were wonderful and our tour of the desert areas and mountains was glorious! Restaurants included Top of the Rock, Taco Guild and Organ Stop Pizza, all amazing. Great job Steve and Dallas!

Thank you for a wonderful trip!  We felt like a king and queen onboard the Celebrity X!  T'was a dream come true to visit our brothers and sisters on St. Lucia, Grenada, and Antigua.  Traveling with Steve is always a 100% relaxing experience.

Caribbean Mission Cruise

This cruise was an incredible experience for both my wife and me! We really enjoyed the ship and all five ports that we visited. We also met many new friends. It was a wonderful way to ring in 2025!!!

Steve put together a great itinerary for this tour! Everything was in place and even when the unexpected happened, his team was able to adapt with little or no impact to the group. The choice of cruise line was perfect; I thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities of the Celebrity Beyond. The ports provided many varied, interesting options for tour excursions and personal adventures alike. The atmosphere among the tour participants was wonderful and I really appreciated the opportunity to share God's Word with my traveling companions. This was my first cruise, and I was skeptical whether I'd enjoy it or not. I would heartily recommend signing up for any of Father's World Tours, and any cruise offering especially! 

Everything was wonderful. Steve does an excellent job making sure that all the details are in place. Great people, great sites and great food. Seeing the missions were the highlights and daily devotions with fellow believers were very uplifting. Thank you. Would definitely recommend this trip to everyone. 

Had a great time. Fantastic itinerary, people, accommodations, food, facilities & entertainment.

It was a well planned trip with great people and wonderful accomodations and food! I especially enjoyed the missions we visited and the Christian fellowship we enjoyed!

Steve was a fantastic leader - organized, detailed and very helpful and patient with all our questions and concerns.  I loved seeing and understanding more about our missions in the Caribbean.   The cruise line, Celebrity, was amazing also.

I had a great time! Met new friends, enjoyed the company and liked not having to drive! Les Miserables was so good!

Les Miserables in Minneapolis

Father's World Tours did an excellent job organizing the itinerary, timing the bus stops, and dropping us off right at the door to the theater. Les Miserables was fabulous and definitely something we will talk about for weeks, maybe even years to come. Then at the end, there was the bus picking us up in the same place it dropped us off. Wonderful timing and stress free! Thanks.

Thanks, Helen. We enjoyed having you along!

We enjoyed the tour. Many beautiful sights and a lot of good food. Clean hotel with friendly staff.   Our guide and crew were excellent.  Provided entertainment and help when needed.

Superior Shores

Thanks, Kimbles. Hope to have you back on another trip sometime soon. Go Big Red!


We had a great time.  Would recommend it to all.

Thanks, Deb. Looking forward to having you along on another trip sometime soon!

The Superior Shores trip had many interesting events.  I personally was able to check off many things on my to see list.  The trip was a fun time with wonderful people.  I felt very well cared for the whole time.  

We had a great time.  Wonderful food and perfect accommodations.

Thanks, Maggi. We were blessed to have you on board!

We enjoyed it.  We saw a lot of beautiful and interesting things.  It was well organized.  

Thanks, Joyce. Your encouragement is greatly appreciated and I’m glad you had a great time. 

It was one of the best trips I've been on.  Loved everything, especially the beautiful MN state parks, seeing Duluth and the Glensheen Mansion, Mesabi Iron Ore Range, Hibbing High School, and the wonderful dinner and the service at Shepherd of the Hills luth. Church.
Thanks also for free parking at Bloomington Lutheran Church! 

 The Food was all delicious everywhere and also the Lunches from Bo Didley and the Great Harvest Bread Co.                                                                 Thank You, Steve, for putting this good trip together.       Yes, 5 Stars!!!!!
Thank You for all you do to make everyone comfortable and to help in any way you can to alleviate any problems that come up for anyone.  It is very much appreciated.
