You are joining a long history of literally thousands of people who have been a part of making Camp Li-Wa a place where people can come and connect with God, His creation and fellowship with believers. For decades, we have watched Work Teams become a perfect way to use your gifts and abilities for the work God is doing in the lives of the children and young people in Alaska.
Since your team is visiting from outside Alaska, we want to make sure that you also get a taste of what the Last Frontier has to offer. In between work projects, your team will be have the opportunity to head out to go explore the local attractions. There are many amazing local hikes, a riverboat tour, interactive historical displays and the six million acre Denali National park. Your team will definitely experience Alaska at every turn.
