Operation Heal Our Patriots Strengthens Military Marriages
Samaritan’s Purse invites military service members and their spouses to Alaska during the summer months for a week of marriage enrichment and renewal.
Each summer, through Operation Heal Our Patriots, U.S. military couples experience God’s power to heal hurting marriages. Flown to remote Alaska, they go through a week of chaplain-led, Biblically based marriage enrichment. During their stay, couples also enjoy exciting, once-in-a-lifetime excursions—fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing—in beautiful Lake Clark National Park and surrounding areas.
Since 2012, God has been faithful to transform lives and strengthen military marriages through Operation Heal Our Patriots, a project of Samaritan’s Purse. Hundreds of men and women have received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and been baptized by our chaplains. Nearly 1,000 couples have recommitted their marriages to God since the program began.
Alaska is just the beginning. As they transition back to ordinary life, Operation Heal Our Patriots continues to support couples through Family Care. This year-round, lifetime component of the program allows Alaska alumni to connect with regional chaplains on a regular basis. The chaplains also help couples find a local Christian congregation faithfully preaching the Word of God.
