                                 Alaska Synod Core Values

As a synod of the ELCA, who are we and what do we value?
​When are we at our best?

Over the next few months, the congregations and ministries in our synod will work on answering those important questions as we take part in a process to discern ​and articulate our key values.

Dialing or texting 988 is a direct connection to compassionate care and support for anyone experiencing suicidal thoughts, who is at risk of suicide, or who is struggling with emotional distress. The Lifeline is free and confidential, with operators that treat callers with respect and listen without judgment.

If you are calling about a friend or family member who is in distress, the person on the phone will walk you through how to help and provide resources. No matter your circumstances, there is no wrong door when accessing the Lifeline. 988 can be used by anyone, any time.
