I live in Valdez, however, I have been at Bethel and the Bering Sea villages. Let me just say that there is no part of America any more devoutly Christian than in that area. Not even the Bible belt of the south.
The impression I get, it is like stepping back in time to the Christian America say of the 19th century. Bear this in mind when you see those people doing the Hallelujah chorus, they believe every bit of it! Thank you, Sarah, from this fellow Alaskan, for putting this for the rest of America to see.

Thank you for your wonderful comments! Yes, you have put it best: “it is like stepping back in time to the Christian America say of the 19th century.”
I have bookmarked this thread and I need to post a thank you to Sarah on her FaceBook page!
Merry Christmas!
