September 28 - October 5, 2025
We are excited to announce an incredible opportunity to serve the community of McDowell County, West Virginia. We will be partnering with Rural Compassion and coming alongside Pastor Charlie Rose. Our focus will be to continue the construction of a cottage for a widow in desperate need of housing and may also include working with Raven's Ministry, the food and clothing distribution site for McDowell County. Additionally, we will have a community outreach event that is still in the works. Everyone can participate! Whether you’re an experienced builder or a first-time volunteer, there’s always plenty to do. From hands-on construction to painting, organizing, and general support, your skills—no matter the level—will make a big difference.
Ages: Open to adults and youth accompanied by parent, or youth with church approval.
Cost: $500, includes lodging, food, required insurance, and project cost.

Let’s Finish The Task
Matthew 28:18-20 ESV
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
One of our major focuses is to see the church where it does not exist. We believe it is essential that the Church dial in on reducing the statistic that 40% of the world lives without access to Christ.
We currently support over 46 missionaries and over 20 organizations. Our partners work in areas from motel and college ministry all the way to pioneer church planting in the most restricted countries of the world. Of our 46 missionaries, there are currently 14 who serve in unreached countries of less than 2% of the entire population who are evangelical.
Due to sensitive updates and safety concerns, some information will only be shared in our in-person meet-ups, and we ask that this information remain cloistered to these environments.
