The mission trip this year is open to the entire congregation (minimum age 14; 12 with a parent present) and will be held from June 3-9.  We will be helping our neighbors in West Virginia overcome the devastation of natural disasters or poverty.  Wednesday is a rest day so you can go for Monday-Tuesday, Thursday-Friday or the full week.   If you cannot attend the whole week, please consider joining us for the first or latter half of the week.

The cost for the trip is $125 for two days or $250 for the full week.  The fee includes transportation, lodging, meals while at the center, and our contribution to the cost of supplies for the tasks.   We will be staying at a church in Hampden, West Virginia.  Sunday school classrooms are converted into dormitories. There are cots for approximately 30 people. There are two bathrooms and two showers. There is wi-fi available. Groups have the opportunity to participate in the Tuesday evening youth program!

For more information, please contact the church office or email: missiontrip@fpcknox.org.
