AS NEEDED
Hurricane Relief
Following deadly storms, a number of teams from several of our churches spend weeks working on feeding units and clean-up crews in affected cities to help individuals and churches get back on their feet. With such widespread destruction it often takes years of continued effort for the areas to return to normal.
We are deeply grateful to the many who also helped with financial and material donations. Never has our nation experienced such horrific devestation to be met with an even greater and kind-hearted generosity. Teams continue to go in the name of Christ to touch the hurting and displaced.
COMPLETED!
Pioneering Missions
It is sometimes hard to believe that there is such little evangelical witness in many parts of our own country.
We ministered to a number of churches and communities of the Green Mountain Baptist Association. It was a privilege to help with their soup kitchen to the homeless and needy, join with pioneering churches in worship and prayer, share in construction projects, and even assist some of their missionaries with computer and technical needs.

Summer Youth Camp
"A golfing buddy of mine, Evelyn Giles, suggested that I go on a mission trip with her. I asked her where we were going, if I went, and she said Switzerland !!! Well, that definitely is a trip, so I thought and prayed about it and said, 'Sure I'll go.' It wasn't until later that I found out that the trip was to help out at the IBC, International Baptist Convention, youth camp—Euroventure. A youth camp!!??" --by Pam Turpin
