We are going to be working for two different churches on this team and we are very excited about it!
Copper Center Community Chapel and Kenny Lake Community Chapel
Both churches serve the Copper River Valley between Glennallen and Valdez, Alaska.
LightShine Ministries has been helping build and maintain Strelna Lake Wilderness Bible Camp since 1998. The camp is used for ministry to the children of the Copper River Valley in southeastern Alaska. The camp is a ministry of Copper Center Community Church. Most of the children that come to camp are from the Ahtna village in Copper Center. The camp gives them a chance to spend an enjoyable week having fun with friends while also learning more about their relationship with their Creator, Jesus Christ.

Our goal for this team is two fold:
1. Spend a couple days at the camp doing needed repairs from this summer's use, replenishing firewood and clearing brush. The idea is to do a general cleaning of the camp and prepare it for next year!
2. We will be helping Kenny Lake Community Chapel insulate (blue foam between furring strips) and hang drywall in their church. The original 2X4 wall construction of their old church is not enough too keep the cold out in interior Alaska and our goal is to help them finish the project.
We will be spending four days working at Kenny Lake Community Chapel and two days working at the camp.
