First Impressions

Our first view of Safe Harbor Church and our new home as seen from the deck of the Eastern Wind. The four bedroom parsonage is on the left of the sanctuary and the high school sized gymnasium is on the right.

We were warmly greeted by our new friend Bea who is a worker at the Trident plant as well as a strong believer and supporter of the church. She has been especially welcoming of the new pastor and his wife!

This picture of Akutan Bay was taken from the front steps of the church looking toward the Trident Seafood Co. about 1/3 mile away. We have been eating our meals at the plant galley and enjoying their little store.


The Grumman Goose delivering mail for the village as well as loading passengers from Trident trying to get home for the holidays. This is the first mail plane in three weeks.

Gary, shoveling a dusting of snow off the front steps of the church. Temperatures have been mild and most days are windy and rainy, sometimes turning to snow.

  2. Yes, yes, yes!!! Thank you for the pictures of your new place of ministry. It was good to have the other pictures, but seeing you there in that setting makes it even better for us to visualize you there. Of course, we're still a bit sad that you're not HERE - but we want God's will for you and for Safe Harbor Church.
