“This time in our history is alive with hope, shining the spotlight on the courage and resilience of Western Alaskans.
The value of honoring our elders has been even more prominent in our thoughts and actions. Councils, businesses, and community leaders have come together, taking steps to secure the safety and wellbeing of each person. I am continually humbled and proud of the dedication and teamwork of our KNOM family. We are essential workers every day, strengthening connection, communication, and faith.
Thank you for keeping KNOM’s mission alive and thriving in every season. May we continue to join together in our daily prayer and work to live out God’s call.”
