The Body Shop is a Community Outreach Ministry, facilitated by LifeSpring Bible Church, that seeks to shine the light of Jesus Christ by meeting practical needs in the city of Anchorage and its surrounding municipalities. Some of the services we provide include: hosting family events such as our annual Trunk or Treat and Fourth of July BBQ, partnering with local churches and organizations to help feed the homeless, packing shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child, adopting local schools, and much more.

Our next meeting will be Saturday May 15th, 21021 at Isaac and Leah’s House at 2320 Chandalar Dr. If you would like to help us love the “least of these,” please email Isaac Johnson at isaac@lifespringak.com.
