This is a new Creationist ministry and it is definitely worth your interest, time, prayers, and support.
I first heard about this Ministry in this email which was sent to many folks from one of the founders, Bill Hoesch :

Dear creation enthusiasts,
Happy (belated) Thanksgiving! (2009) As Alicia and I are preparing for 2010 please let us share with you a brief word about Logos Research Associates, about us, and about where we feel God is leading us.
‘Logos’ is a new concept in creation ministry. It began when several of the top names in creation research found themselves unemployed in the fall of 2008. With the help of Calvary Chapel of Costa Mesa, Logos became a non-profit tax-deductible corporation (501c3). We are a ministry “without walls,” and our supporters give directly to individual creation scientists (as with missionaries) rather than to a corporate entity with a big overhead. Our ultimate vision is to foster excellent scientific research which supports Scripture and encourages faith. Our mission is to see the best evidences for the young-earth creationist position reach the truth-starved university campus where it is desperately needed. You can learn more about this new ministry at LogosResearchAssociates.org.
Alicia and I feel jointly called to full-time creation ministry. In the short term, our goal is to build support by sharing Logos’ work and mission in churches, schools and other venues in cross-country speaking circuits and in creation field tours. This past September we launched our first full-fledged creation tour, and traveled the back-roads of the Southern Utah-Grand Canyon region with 21 guests, teaching (and eating!) all along the way. What a blessing!
Our home is a 32-foot-long fifth-wheel trailer, which is well-suited for speaking tours. We are accountable to our church base at Calvary Chapel San Diego and our mission base with Logos Research Associates in Orange County, also in southern California. Rotating between these bases and our family base in upstate New York, we are in a good position to conduct coast-to-coast speaking tours. Churches near universities with a burden for student ministry are of most interest to us, and so are all Calvary Chapels, but we are happy to go anywhere. Perhaps we can set up a seminar or lecture in your area for 2010.
In the long-term, our vision is to develop a billboard-scale traveling exhibit for university campuses that intelligently presents only the soundest of arguments for creation (and against evolution). Accompanied by a team of volunteers trained to engage rather than debate students, the idea is to provoke the kind of critical thinking that is essentially forbidden in their classrooms. Christian on-campus ministries are likely to be emboldened in their witness for Christ. Free speech laws have been proven effective in stopping attempts by public universities to block similar exhibits when invited by an on-campus group. If students can be persuaded that their (expensive) education is not giving them the whole picture on origins, or that they are being deceived, this can cause them to reexamine their whole world view. We are very excited about this prospect and there is much more to say, if you’d like to contact us.
Many of you have already been a great encouragement to Alicia and me over this past year! It has taken us some time to reach this place of complete commitment, but we have a growing sense of urgency to get underway. So far as is possible we would love to be tent makers, but early indications are that our ministry goals will only be possible if we can find partners in prayer and financial support. If you are so inclined, please pray for us during this important period of transition. We believe God is building a team. Are you a part?
Gratefully yours in Christ,
Bill and Alicia Hoesch
