to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Father Thomas Merton’s Alaska visit, the inaugural Thomas Merton in Alaska Conference will take place Sept. 28-29 at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church in Anchorage.
It is a little-known story that Father Thomas Merton spent 17 days in Alaska, and that it was one of the last places on earth he saw before he died of accidental electrocution outside of Bangkok just two months later.
