Tongan Fellowship

at

Anchor Park

The Tongan Fellowship has met at Anchor Park United Methodist Church since 1978. Many members of the Fellowship are also members of Anchor Park and participate in its programs for youth and adults. Some of the Tongan leaders and Lay Speakers are dynamic speakers, and are available to speak to other groups.

The Tongan Choir provides music for all Tongan Services and once a month for the 11:00 Worship Service. They also provide music and dancing for other churches, Alaska Missionary Conference meetings and special occasions.

Tongan Youth meet as a group for a variety of activities during the week.

Worship Services are held on Sunday afternoons @ 1:00PM.

Members of the Tongan Fellowship are part of the large population in Anchorage (and Alaska) which have come here for work opportunities. The Kingdom of Tonga includes about 150 islands in the heart of Polynesia in the South Pacific, east and north of New Zealand. Europeans discovered the islands in the early 17th century. Tongans have embraced the principles of Christianity, brought to them by missionaries of several faiths, particularly Methodist and Catholic.
