Anchorage, Alaska--2011






This is Anchorage, Alaska. This is where we spent a week on a mission trip at. Alaska is rated the lowest of the states in people going to church. There is 22 percent of the people that go to church once a week there.








This is some of the pics of the Boys and Girls club we taught VBS each day at. We did a lesson, crafts, puppets, dowel rods, object lesson and balloons.











So much beauty that God has created.







This was a block party we had at Chester Park in Anchorage on Fri. night. We helped another team that had been teaching VBS all week at this park by doing puppets and balloons.







This was a block party that we had for the Boys and girls Club on Wed. night. There was a meal, face painting, bubbles, balloons, puppets, hair painting and the children did a dowel rod song for the ones that were there. This was a song we had taught them during the afternoon.







This was a craft time at a womans shelter that we ministered to in Anchorage.



This is one of the ladies we met while in Alaska. She was in the park where we ate our lunch at noon. We was able to visit with her and her grandchildren. Her mother had passed away two weeks before and her sister was in the hospital.







One of our out reaches in Alaska was at a food pantry. We put cans on shelves and boxed food to give out. We worked here two mornings. They had 100 or more each day (4 days a week)come for food. They were really sweet people. We enjoyed working with them.
