Vision Alaska ministry has made an everlasting impact on my life. The adventure of a lifetime is the only way to put it. The time you share with other believers in the heart of God’s creation is something you won't forget. This ministry not only helped me to grow in God’s word, but to also see His awesome handywork. Every day is something new. Something new to learn, something new to see. You’d just have to experience it for yourself. It truly was the most awesome experience.

Going on the vision Alaska trip was what I expected, it was colder than I thought it would be and it rained a lot, two things that don't mix well, but it was more beautiful than I could've ever imagined. From all the hikes we did and fires we made, it made me think of how the two went hand in hand in my walk with God and how when I had hills to climb he gave me strength and brothers in Christ to help me on my way and for myself to lift up my brothers in Christ in times of need. Something I took from our devotions on how we need to stir up our fire for Christ so that our flame doesn't dim, was when we made campfires and when we'd have to gather fuel and keep feeding it, I compared that to how I needed to feed my fire for Christ in order to have any fire to stir up. Vision Alaska wasn't what I expected but it showed me spiritually and literally God's wonderful and awesome power and I hope you get to see it too.

"This trip was the best experience of my life! Witnessing God’s beautiful creation in its raw and authentic form was absolutely incredible. It was an experience you simply can’t find anywhere else. It served as a powerful reminder of God’s greatness and the countless blessings He has given us on this Earth.
In Alaska, I had an amazing opportunity to reconnect with God on a deeper level, free from distractions, alongside like-minded brothers in Christ. The Papa Bear Adventures crew, led by the owner Justin, took care of us with genuine care and attention to detail. The pilots were highly skilled and a joy to be around. (I was initially nervous about flying in a float plane, but the pilots were absolutely fantastic!) Derek and the other group leaders were well-organized and prepared, which made the trip seamless and allowed us to fully focus on our relationship with God.
If God presents you with the opportunity to go on this trip, don’t miss it. He wants to work powerfully in your life."

I absolutely loved my trip to Alaska. From the amazing fishing to the morning Bible studies, I truly had an unbelievable experience. At Alaska one can see massive grizzly bears, play fun card games, eat some great food, skip stones, and even make hot tubs. My Vision Alaska experience was amazing, and I will always remember it as a time that I grew closer to God and nearer to my friends.

I'm so thankful for the opportunity to go on the Vision Alaska trip. Alaska is the most unreal place I have ever seen. I was stunned by the beauty of the mountains, rivers, lakes, and wildlife. Alaska gave me a glimpse of how big God's creation is, and displays God's glory in ways I can't put into words. The trip helped strengthen me in my walk with the Lord and was a huge encouragement to me spiritually. I want to thank Justin, from Papa Bear Adventures, for sponsoring this life changing trip!
