Mary Beth and I have a big announcement that we’re super excited to share with you: we’re heading to Alaska in 2023 for an epic cruise and we want YOU to join us! Mark your calendars for July 21-28, 2023 and come cruise with us on a Great Alaskan Adventure. We had a chance to visit Alaska a few years ago and it was a trip of a lifetime, so we’re very excited that we get to go again, and hopefully bring YOU with us.

We’ll be cruising on Royal Caribbean’s Ovation of the Seas, and we’ll sail the Alaskan Inside Passage, as well as stopping for excursions in Juneau, Skagway, and the magnificent Endicott Arm Daws Glacier. We’re talking breathtaking views, fabulous food, fun and fellowship, amazing times of ministry and encouragement, and maybe even a little music (ok, a LOT of music) along the way! We'll even have the chance to go whale watching - we hear they like to Dive! (Ha! See what I did there?).

This is sure to be a week we won’t soon forget, and we can’t wait to make some incredib
