This month please pray for Covenant Youth of Alaska (CYAK) and Rockford Police Chaplaincy. “CYAK was formed in 1992 through the Evangelical Covenant Church of Alaska in response to the struggles of Alaska Native youth who have some of the highest rates of suicide, teen pregnancy, and sexual abuse in the country. Today CYAK ’s team spans across the state and country working with churches and ministries to champion the cause of ministry to young people in Alaska. They focus on ministering to students between the ages of 12 and 25. One program they have is Aarigaa. This ministry offers a safe place for young adults to gather and feel comfortable. Each group meets weekly for Bible Study, games, shared meals, and fellowship with one another. Another ministry is Regional Youth Events which serve as weekends of encouragement and growth for junior and senior high schoolers throughout the school year. They enjoy a weekend of crazy games, great fellowship, and an opportunity to hear the gospel message.” For more information see www.cyak.org.
Rockford Police Chaplaincy consists of volunteers to provide support to first responders and their families, and others involved in tragedy throughout Rockford.
