Only in Alaska


Our new church is a great place. We are still trying to find our niche, but it offers so much to its congregation and the community. Like this section here...I pulled it off of the web site. See if you can find the uniquely Alaskan service they provide to the community.


CARE MINISTRIES

These are a few of the various ways to care for people within the church.

Care Meals: Help meet a tangible need by periodically providing meals
during the various transitional seasons of life.

Hospital Visitation: Visit with people in the hospital to encourage,
support, and care for them and their families in a time of physical, emotional
and spiritual need.

Military Deployment Ministry: Help support and honor our military
members and their families by prayer, fellowship, and providing for basic
needs, especially when a spouse is deployed to another part of the world.

Moose Kill Ministry: Help salvage and distribute meat from moose
road-kills. Harvested meat is given to families in need. This is a unique
ministry with several ways you can serve such as a dispatching the team,
harvesting the moose meat, and processing and distributing the meat.

Encouragers: Help provide a safe place for struggling people in our
community to seek help in a counseling situation. Receive training and
mentoring in guiding people towards wholeness in Christ.



Uuummm, yeaaah, can you guess which one is at the top of my "no thanks" list.
