Who We Support
We are a church that seeks to tithe at least 10% of our overall annual budget to other ministries who are work building the kingdom of God. We have organized our support into three major categories that define our partnerships: Local (Anchorage), State-wide (Alaska), and Global Missions. Below you will find a list of those we support as a church. If you'd like to learn more about them, click on the picture and you will be re-directed to their website, blog or email.
