Frontiers of Faith "Alaska-Land of Ice and Snow? Why would you want to go there?" was the response when Carl and Florence Personeus told people of their Call to Alaska as missionaries in 1917. No accurate information about Alaska was available, but the newlyweds embarked on their journey to "The Last Frontier" by faith. During their sixty-five years in Alaska, the Personeuses weathered twenty-foot snowfalls, hurricane-force Taku winds, fires, a deadly flu epidemic, a spine-tingling dog sled ride, avalanches, storms at sea, the strongest earthquake ever to hit North America, life-threatening illnesses, and painful injuries as they ministered in towns such as Juneau, Klukwan, Ketchikan, Pelican, Seward, Valdez, and across the new state. Come along on their adventurous faith journey that spans the years from Gold Rush to Statehood and beyond in Alaska, "America's Last Frontier."
