June 26: We had a very full day which started with a performance in worship at St. John UMC, followed by some downtime and the opportunity to shop and explore downtown Anchorage. A small group used the time to take a 9-mile bike ride along a coastal trail. We then performed at the Anchorage Lutheran Church (with a live stream, starts at 38:32) and dinner, and we ended our evening at the Anchorage Gospel Rescue Mission to sing in an evening chapel service.
​
June 27 and 28: Two terrific days of performances and adventures in Anchorage and beyond, finally landing in Denali! We sang outdoors at Heritage Place and an impromptu performance on our cruise at the Portage Glacier after our visit at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. We ended the day at Soldotna UMC to benefit Shelter of Hope. The next day took us to the Alaska Veterans and Pioneers Home to sing and some hiking and snow play at Hatchers Pass.
