This years project was our tenth and most successful, and most spiritual as we began a whole new chapter going forward. Please google " gardening project continues to enrich nutrition for Alaskan communities" to read most recent article written on this act of Love. Also, we now have a Facebook page under Penny's name.
Several posts will be published on the most interesting and exciting summer to date. We're not only planning for next year, were continuing this year by meeting two people from Circle in New Mexico. We've also accepted a leadership role in three divisions of preparations for the gathering that will began a much larger presence of our denomination in the village.
We have been asked to begin having services each Sunday while we are there. This has opened the door for a whole new relationship with our Gwich'in brothers and sisters.
Also, Bill was introduced to an island that has been a part of the history of the Gwich'in for thousands of years. Penny and Bill will be dropped off in June of next year to begin not only planting a garden but making preparations to live on the island a couple years down the road leading up to the gathering in 2020.
This year marks a whole new beginning that reinforces why we travel so far each year, home to Circle
