Building Update
We are operating a full office staff in the basement of the church. We are still working our way through our backlog of email, so please be patient if we haven't replied yet. ServiceMaster® has made great strides in cleaning much of the church's equipment, the carpeting has been removed from the foyer, and the damaged floor between the main floor offices and upstairs classrooms has been removed. Our building is looking more like a new construction every day, and less like a fire damaged building. (see the pictures below, click on images to enlarge. For earlier pictures, click here).
Services: Worship services are 9:30 and 11:15 am on Sundays at the Wasilla Middle School, with children's programs through 5th grade for both services. Also resuming January 11th will be adult Sunday School classes. Watch here for room assignments.
How to help: Thank you for your willingness to support our church during this time. We do have insurance that is helping us replace and repair damage to our building. If you would still like to donate to our reconstruction, please specify the donation is for the WBC building fund. We can receive mail at 1651 W Nicola Avenue, Wasilla, AK 99654.
Congregation: if you wish to augment the ServiceMaster® cleaning team, please call the church with your contact information.
