Just before Thanksgiving in 2005, Lattis was invited to visit with Tim and
Martha Sergie at Nome. The purpose of the visit was to discuss and plan processes
for the development of church leaders in the villages of Western Alaska. At the
present time, Tim and Martha are giving good leadership to the church in Nome as
interim pastors. Lattis also ministered over the weekend to the church in regard
to leadership development.
