Bob Moore

Bob Moore came to Homer, Alaska in 1969, and worked in the village of Nikolaevsk as their first teacher. At the time, there was no road to this Old Believers community, so he carried his supplies while walking forty minutes on a trail through the woods. He taught in Nikolaevsk for twenty-three years, and saw how it grew and changed.
