We loved worshiping with our friends at Mat-Su Covenant Church this morning! Such a blessing to spend time in the Word with fellow believers!

We slipped, slid, and laughed our way down to Thunderbird Falls! It was a great start to our week in Alaska.

We were invited to dinner at the home of a family from church, and they treated us to some salmon chowder, homemade bread, and Alaskan berry dessert. They are also nurses, so we had fun chatting about nursing and Alaska!

We had a great time dog sledding in Talkeetna yesterday! It’s harder than it looks, but so so fun!

Today we got to work with New Hope Compassionate Ministries in Anchorage. They received a big shipment of tomatoes so we got to help store them away until they’re ready to go on the shelves!

The three of us spent our day at the Alaska Health Fair, and we had a great experience! They had a blood drive happening that we were able to help with, and we also helped process samples, stuff envelopes, and more!

Most of our group was serving at New Hope's food pantry in Anchorage. Today was their distribution day, so we helped bring groceries out to cars, helped shop, and had some great interactions with guests.
We saw God at work through the volunteers and conversations - one woman even asked for prayer!

We enjoyed dinner at Arctic Roadrunner - the oldest restaurant in Alaska! Some of us even tried the salmon or halibut burgers!

We spent our day serving at Alaska Medical Missions sorting supplies, moving boxes and pallets, and having some fun! This amazing nonprofit sends medical supplies to other communities and countries. While we were serving today, they received a request for some supplies to go to Ukraine and a few of us helped pack up those bags!
We also learned more about healthcare in Alaska and played with some of the equipment!

Part of our group served at Thrifters Rock and helped with everything from shining shoes, to sorting books, to cleaning, to breaking up ice in the parking lot. We also found some great thrifts!!

It was such a blessing to serve alongside Frontline Missions on Friday! We got to prep and serve a meal as well as help organize the clothing closet. This ministry and its volunteers are INCREDIBLE! They love their community unconditionally!

Tonight after dinner part of the group decided to go on a little walk to the Palmer hay flats! God’s creation is so beautiful! We are so blessed to have this time of fellowship together!

For our second Sunday in Alaska, a few of us celebrated Palm Sunday at Mat-Su Covenant Church with palm branches while a few of us went to Wasilla Lakes Church of the Nazarene! We were invited to this service earlier in the week, so we took the opportunity to experience another church service.
