Join this Unforgettable Christian Cruise to Alaska with Bill & Gloria Gaither and their Homecoming Friends
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 daily and every night, along with featured guests and vocalists from different genres, to blend together seamlessly 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 reuniting 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.

America's Last Frontier
This is a land where ancient glaciers drop house-size 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.
