Willow Alaska Church Hosts Mission Team Dinner


Tonight we were treated to a potluck dinner. Were we ever impressed! The dishes featured Alaskan favorites. Everything was delicious. There was moose meatloaf and meatballs, halibut pie, two different kinds of reindeer sausage (caribou), a salad featuring lettuce plucked from the parishoner's garden and lots more.

After the dinner, the missions leader and missionary presented the team with gifts. These included a pen and a lapel pin to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Alaska statehood and a t-shirt from the Willow Winter Festival here in Willow, Alaska.

We appreciated the gifts and truly enjoyed meeting the parishioners. Everyone here has gone out of their way to make us feel welcome. It has been a wonderful experience!
