Join this Unforgettable Christian Cruise to Alaska with Gaither Homecoming and other Gospel Favorites!
It’s been such a pleasure for me and Gloria to introduce the Homecoming community to Alaska over the last 35 years. Experiencing its towering glaciers and quaint towns while enjoying the music we love makes this legendary location even better. This highly anticipated event is sure to feel like a family reunion...decades in the making.
We hope you’ll join us for this unprecedented time of fellowship in such a spectacular destination.
All your favorite Homecoming artists will be there. You’ll be hearing from them every day and every night along with featured guests and vocalists, from different genres, to seamlessly blend together in unforgettable evenings of musical bliss. You’ll have so much more tradition to appreciate as we praise God together as we always do. This week of laughter and soul-stirring music is not to be missed!
And that’s not the only unique aspect of this cruise. We’ll cruise the scenic splendor of Glacier Bay—where the mossy, spruce-hemlock rainforests are home to brown bears and moose. As always, we look forward to being reunited with you in the outstanding hospitality of our esteemed cruise line, Holland America.
Memories are waiting to be made! We hope to see you in the glory of Alaska.
Because He Lives,
