1st AKSOM Simulcast a Success!

The first AKSOM simulcast is now in the history books.  I believe this is an important breakthrough that will allow the AKSOM team to teach more people at less cost and with less physical toll on their bodies.  By all reports, the first simulcast was a success and we have received good feedback.  There were a few minor glitches that got worked out.  Lattis taught Eschatology and Sharlotte taught Apologetics, both at Muldoon Community Assembly in Anchorage.  Wade taught Personal Evangelism from Ketchikan 1st AG.  Not including those present at all the venues, there were around 54 people who logged in to check it out on the internet.  We know there were people from Ketchikan up to Fairbanks, and out to Savoonga.  There were 35-40 present at MCA, and approximately 15 down in Ketchikan.  Thanks to Terry Hull and Voice to the Village for helping make this work.  Praise the Lord!

We will be looking at more Simulcasts in the future.  If you have been considering AKSOM as a way to further your education or use in your local church, now is a great time to jump on board!  Contact the AKSOM office at 562-2247.

Brisket at Anchorage 1st AG

We had a great Central Region Luncheon this past week.  It was hosted by Pastor Gary & Alice Morton, and they made their famous brisket!  The speaker was a regional representative for Christians United for Israel, and he made an excellent presentation.  There were several Anchorage area Pastors there, as this coincided with the Church of Anchorage meeting as well.  I love partnerships!  Thanks Pastor Fay and Pastor Gary and Alice for putting on this event.

AKSOM Teams with VTTV for First Ever Statewide Simulcast

A long-standing vision will begin to be realized on Saturday, February 5, as Voice To The Village works alongside the Alaska School of Ministry to live-stream three AKSOM classes statewide via the Internet. The Personal Evangelism Class with originate from Ketchikan’s First Assembly. The Eschatology Class, along with the Apologetics Class, will originate from Muldoon Community Assembly in Anchorage.
