Churches Helping Churches

Two of our Alaska Ministry Network road-system churches have been a great blessing to one of our village churches located in the Yukon River Delta Region. In late summer, Missionary Odis Ganey with Pastor Stephen Brown led a team from New Life Assembly in Kenai to work on leveling, painting the exterior of the building, installing new windows, and installing new cabinets at Yukon Delta Assembly of God in Emmonak.


Last week, a team from Abundant Life Assembly in Sterling, led by Missionary Terry Hull and Pastor Steve Harshman, worked to paint the interior of the building and install new carpeting and linoleum.




Along with the physical work, Pastor Steve was privileged to minister in the church at Alakanuk on Sunday morning, which is having to meet in the parsonage at the present time due to a heating problem in the church building. Pastor Steve and Terry Hull traveled to Alakanuk from Emmonak via four-wheeler on the frozen Yukon River.


Other churches are encouraged to help their sister churches, especially those off the road-system where repairs, upgrades, and basic maintenance costs are very expensive due to the high costs associated with rural Alaska.
