Join this Unforgettable Christian Cruise to Alaska with Focal Point Ministries and Mike Fabarez
It is easy to lose sight of the world around us as we rush through our daily lives. God created the world for His children to enjoy and to declare His glory, for people to perceive who He is and know Him. Creation has a purpose and we want to discover it with you in one of the most beautiful places in the world.
In the summer of 2022 I invite you to join me for an Alaskan cruise. As we marvel at the wondrous glaciers, vast forests and rugged mountains of the Alaskan coast, we will explore Scripture to raise our view of the Almighty God and ponder His majesty that will be on display every moment of the day.
On this luxury cruise you will enjoy world-class dining, a multitude of activity opportunities and singular experience you will not forget. Please join me on this adventure to behold the majesty of God through His creation, delve into God’s Word, discover new friends, and fellowship with one another.
Please join me in the summer of 2022 for this exciting voyage!

America's Last Frontier
This is a land where ancient glaciers drop house-sized chunks of ice into the sea with a roar, where grizzlies fish for spawning salmon, where the lush green canopy of trees is offset by distant snowy mountains and where the word “majestic” is hardly enough to describe what you see. Nowhere else in North America is the scenery so spectacular and God’s creative wonder so vivid. From Juneau to Ketchikan, from caribou to king salmon, Alaska is the perfect place to reconnect with your Creator.
North American Animals
Have your camera ready as moose and bears wander through meadows and streams, whales burst from the ocean’s surface and eagles fly overhead.
Calving Glaciers
Watch in amazement as columns and shards of glacial ice shear off and splash into the ocean.
Towns on the Edge of the World
Explore the unique personality and learn the culture of cities and towns living on the border of the Alaskan wilderness.
