People don’t understand all that goes into ministry in Alaska and Northern Canada. We've heard people say they want to support those who do ‘frontline ministries’ That is a good thing because we need people in these isolated communities doing youth work, leading Bible studies, church planting, and putting the Gospel on display. However, if that is all there was front-line ministries would never survive.
If you followed us for even a short period, you should have heard us describe how difficult it is to minister in the 60/70 Window. (If you want more information on this, check out the report God's Extreme Love; Life and Ministry in the 60/70 Window.) These vital ministries must be supported, and people need to be prepared. That is why we have a Logistics & Support Team.
This team is headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska with a way station in Fairbanks, Alaska, and Yellowknife, Canada. Logistics & Support is made up of smaller teams that work together to ensure the smooth functioning of the mission and aid in the successes of those on the front line. You can view a short, L&S video at this link. The following is the basic breakdown of the L&S Team:
I hope that you can see that each member of the body does its part. We know the extreme challenges that our friends face out in the remote corners of the 60/70 Window. We want to see them thrive as God works through them. To bring the Good News to the Far North takes a total team effort. As our former Director, Barry Rempel once said; “If we are engaged in this front line ministry, that means we are engaged in what it takes to keep this front line ministry going.”
How about you? Do you want to be a part of our team? There are many ways to help us out. If you are in the least bit interested, check out this link.
