The Howlands in Alaska

Bridge Story #15: The Howlands

What was your initial connection with Bara?

Our neighbors Dennis and Lori Wright. After meeting Pastor Joel at Lori's toward the end of Dennis's life, and at the funeral in East Texas.

How did you decide to get connected here?

Because of Joel's dedication to people.

Why should someone else get connected with Bara?

Bara's involvement in the community motivated us to get involved, as we like to help the community and friends. If it weren't for Bara, we probably would have never got involved with mission work (Graceworks Alaska). Being surrounded by good people, like-minded, and with similar flaws, who are open, honest, and there for you has helped us be more open and understanding to all around us outside of church.
