We all know that mission fields exist around the world, but did you know there is a mission in our own backyard? A portion of this month's Sabbath School mission offering will be going to Camp Polaris, a summer camp operated by the Alaska Conference on the remote Lake Aleknagik outside of Dillingham. The camp, which operates for one week each summer, is in desperate need of some upgrades. The money from the offerings will go to build a shower house for the campers as well as provide mattresses for the cabins. While the camp serves Adventist young people from around Alaska, the majority of campers have no Christian background, and it is through summer camp that they are introduced to Jesus.
