Marian Homes Sponsors Cruise – Western Caribbean Sweetheart

Marian Homes is sponsoring a ten-day cruise to the Western Caribbean, sailing from Baltimore on Feb 8, 2014.  You are invited to join them on aboard the Royal Caribbean's Grandeur Of The Seas.  Pricing starts at only $859 pp dbl occ.  As the sponsor of this Group Cruise, Marian Homes will benefit from your participation in this exciting vacation experience.

Consider the following:  Because of a decision by the Commonwealth of Virginia to close the institution now serving as residences for many intellectual disabled adults, there is an urgent need to increase the number of Group Homes in the Fairfax area.  Marian Homes is extending an invitation to the Knights to participate as a means of raising funds for the purchase of a third house. 

Is there someone you know who never goes on vacation?  This is an opportunity to provide an unforgettable Christmas gift to that person.  Have you been trying to find a way to get together with relatives or friends who now live in another state?  Why not consider joining one another on this cruise.  Are you struggling to find a good Christmas gift for the grandparents who have everything?  This cruise could be just the right choice.

Go to the GroupHomeCruise.com for complete details. 

Initial deposit - $900 per cabin -  due no later than July 15, 2013

For Greater Glory  will be in theaters June 1.  Supreme Knight Carl Anderson is encouraging all to see (see KnightLine publication, April 2012, Volume 29, number 4.)  "For Greater Glory is a powerful film that provides a compelling account of a forgotten era of our continent's history.
