MIssion Week

A team of Victory Summer Staff will be heading north in Alaska, above the Arctic Circle, to run a week of programming for Jr. High and High School youth in the remote village of Kotzebue. Flying out on August 2nd, the team will arrive prepared to run “camp in a bag” style day programs for the Jr. High and evening sessions for the High School students.

Scroll down for a full run down of the daily schedule.

PARTNERSHIP

The Victory Team will be serving with a church plant of ChangePoint Anchorage and their pastor, Lance Kramer along with his wife, Corina. The Kramers have experience bringing in work teams and youth groups to help the ministry of both the church as well as Kattivik Bible Camp. Because of Covid, Kattivik was not able to run this last year, so Pastor Lance and his team are excited for Victory to come and help run day camp programs for their Jr. High and High School youth.
