Living the Mission: Alaska Mission Journey



This is the second year we have been able to serve with this new church plant in Anchorage (True North Church). Last year we assisted them during their pre-launch stage, so they are a little less than a year-old. God has been blessing this church in reaching this city for Christ! In less than a year, they have been averaging over 100 in attendance with highs in the 130’s and 140’s.

This year’s team went through several stages in its preparation for this journey. As with most mission trips, the plans were ever changing and our team had a wonderful attitude that God was in control and we were going to do whatever was necessary to make more of the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

We had the joy of serving in a local soup kitchen (including the prep work!), a local HIV/AIDS clinic, and four days of block parties. The Lord blessed us with amazing weather and we were able to make some wonderful connections between residents and True North.

Please pray for Pastor Brent Williams and True North Church as they endeavor to be a light in an area of great spiritual darkness!
