Bristol Bay: Where Salmon, Creation, and Culture are Sacred

Picture
FAITH AND BRISTOL BAY, AK
Bristol Bay, AK provides a wonderful example of the beauty of God’s creation supporting the well being of God’s people. For thousands of years, Bristol Bay has supported native subsistence hunters with its wealth of salmon. Today, it supports a sustainable commercial fishing industry and the native communities that call the Bay home. Stewardship and justice are central to this community but they are threatened by a proposal for a large open pit mine in at the headwaters of the Bay. 

ABOUT OUR WORK
Creation Justice Ministries is working with a diverse group of partners to protect Bristol Bay and ensure the long term sustainability of the both the Bay, subsistence hunting in native communities and commercial salmon fishing in the Bay.

- Click here to read a letter from Alaska's Senior religious leaders to the EPA urging them to take the next steps to protect Bristol Bay.

GET INVOLVED
Take the time to look at a new part of the world that you may not have seen. Listen to the BBC’s 2 part series on Bristol Bay and host a salmon dinner at your church!
