  • Would you like to learn more about suicide prevention?

The Alaska Gatekeeper Training uses the QPR method as its core training. QPR stands for Question, Persuade and Refer, an emergency mental health intervention for suicidal persons created by Dr. Paul Quinnett. QPR is a basic education program that teaches everyday community members to recognize a suicide risk and how to get a person at risk the help they need. It is also an action plan that can result in lives saved.
See the event flyer.

Register for this free online event (April 23rd).
  • Are you wondering how to conduct your annual meeting during a pandemic?

An Alaska Synod video conversation was held to share what the state requires and best practices for preparing and conducting an online annual meeting.

Click here to see the recorded session, held in December 2020.
  • Can we legally hold a congregation meeting by Zoom? 

The answer to that question is: Yes. The State of Alaska requires the people be able to hear each other so meeting platforms like Zoom or Skype or Microsoft Teams meet this requirement.

See this ELCA link for more information.
