Joy Christian Center Celebration

In May, Pastor Marlan and Ruth Schoenleben led Joy Christian Center in upgrading from Developing Assembly status to General Council status.  This is something to celebrate!  They planted this church over 10 years ago, and it has grown to sovereign status.  The church unanimously elected Pastor Marlan as the Pastor, and also unanimously ratified their Board and Constitution and Bylaws.  Congratulations to this church as they continue to reach their community for Christ.  Central Region Presbyter Fay Niemann led the business meeting, and Superintendent Bill Welch was in attendance with his wife, Dori.
 





Kotlik Building Supplies Arrived!

After a delay due to the river, the building supplies have now arrived by barge in Kotlik.  Odis has teams lined up to build the building.  Be praying for them as they build.  It is so exciting to see this vision that has been held for so many throughout the years come to pass.  Thanks to everyone who has given to this project.

God is doing great things at Impact Camp in Barrow!  There are around 220 students and leaders gathered at the top of the world to impact Barrow with the Gospel.  Youth Director Mark and Heidi Zweifel are leading a missions team, hosted by Pastor JR Markle and Inupiat AG in Barrow.  Be praying for them as they minister in the community.
