Operation Heal Our Patriots began more than 10 years ago in response to the epidemic of broken marriages among military families. The only real hope to change grim statistics is through the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Since 2012, God has been faithful to transform lives and rescue marriages at this wilderness outpost. We have welcomed 1,904 couples since then to Samaritan Lodge Alaska and we praise God that 850 participants have received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, 1,008 have been baptized by our chaplains in Lake Clark, and 961 couples have recommitted their marriages to God.
The Family Care ministry also offers opportunities to serve through Team Patriot, a program in which veterans and spouses can serve U.S. homeowners who have been affected by natural disasters.
