About the Evans
We are Dan and Barb Evans, with our children Caleb and Audrey. We have been missionaries with Cadence International since 1990 ministering in Germany as a youth pastor for American military teens. In the past few years our hearts have also felt a tug toward the young soldiers and Airmen and it would seem that God has slowly been preparing us for this transition to Alaska. Currently we are looking for new partners to join our team and support us in our ministry.
About the Mountain Chapel Hospitality House
Alaska is beautiful, mountainous, and endless in its opportunity for mountain adventure ministry. But more than that, Anchorage is ripe for reaching out and ministering to the young airmen/soldiers (ages 18-25) and their families. We will be working along side chaplains at both Elmendorf Air Force Base and Fort Richardson Army. These are neighboring bases that share a fence line. Chaplains are a key piece in our ministry. It is our desire to come alongside them, to enhance their ongoing ministry and to be a team player in reaching their soldiers/airmen for Jesus Christ. Currently there are a number of chaplains who are really behind us beginning this new ministry for their soldiers. One chaplain even mentioned that our ministry would be an “answer to his two years of praying for someone to reach soldiers in this way.” We are thrilled God has chosen us to answer this prayer!
