Connect
Encouraging each other spiritually includes a variety of experiences in addition to our weekly worship services. Join others in a biblical study, serve on a ministry team, or participate in one of many events such as a retreat, hike, or church picnic which are planned throughout the year.
1 Thessalonians 5:9-11 (NIV)
For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
JOURNEY GROUPS
*Begin on 9/17/23*
Walk the faith journey with others through Bible studies or discipleship groups such as managing finances or having a godly marriage. These Bible-centered journey groups meet at various times and locations during the fall and spring semesters, and new groups are constantly coming onto the scene. We also endorse other groups in Anchorage with a specific focus such as grieving or addiction recovery.
If you don’t find a group that suits your passion, we encourage you to start one! Let us know if you want to lead a group with your preferred, biblically sound curricula so that we may list your group. Groups can target a specific demographic or be open to anyone.

PRAYER
Prayer services are held throughout the year, usually twice in the fall and one early in the Lenten season, as well as a meditative Good Friday service.
Clear Water provides prayer books called Seek God for the City to unite and guide our personal prayer times during Lent. These heavenly kingdom-minded prayers help us anticipate the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ as we remember His death for our sins on Good Friday and celebrate His resurrection from the dead to secure our eternal life on Resurrection Sunday.
WAYS TO SERVE AND MISSIONS
Serving with others is another way we build relationships and find purpose. Your skills, talents, and resources have an eternal impact. Discover ways to serve at Clear Water and in our community. You may find yourself playing games with youth in Noorvik, Alaska on our annual summer mission trip. Clear Water supports and highlights other local and global ministries. We also send out individuals and teams to serve around the world.
MEMBERSHIP
We believe that church membership is important for mutual accountability. Explore what it means to be a member. Membership classes happen about every 2-3 months. Contact James Embree at james.embree@clearwater.church to let him know you want to be invited to the next membership class. They will also be advertised throughout the year.
