Log Church Symbol of New-Found Faith
In Anaktuvuk Pass a log church rises in the Arctic as a beacon of faith for the Nunamiut. Rev William C Wartes, a Presbyterian missionary, guided the project from the 1952 start, securing 275 logs hauled by dog sled. The 172 by 24 foot chapel seats 60, with a rear annex for pulpit and organ, dedicated in September leaving 43 converts.
