2023 Crossroads Appalachia 920 HSM - Spring Break
Southeast Christian Church Missions Ministry is excited to invite our high school ministries & high school students to be part of a Spring Break US short-term mission trip in the mountains of Appalachia, Kentucky.
Approved participants will spend the week serving alongside our CrossRoads Missions partner in Eastern Kentucky.
Each trip is always a little different, but you can expect to spend time in worship, devotions, &/or ministering to others. These times are used to prepare & challenge you throughout the week.
You will also be spending time on CrossRoads led construction projects. These projects are great for any skill level & trained staff & interns will be supervising projects such as: bathroom remodels, demolition (who doesn’t love tearing down a wall?!?!?), wheelchair ramp construction, putting roofs on houses, painting, & other jobs that pop up.
During the week, the team will spend time caring for local youth & families via community events in Maytown Center/Mountain Community Fellowship. Evening activities will include cookouts, game nights, local concerts, & other activities to experience the culture & impact the community by showing them the love of Jesus.
This US trip is for high school aged students & adult chaperones.
CrossRoads Missions - Appalachia improves the standard of living, raises expectations, & finds hope in the grace of Christ for individuals & families in Appalachia by connecting local residents to Christ-centered ministries through service projects & youth events.
Once you are approved for the trip, your primary point of contact will be your Team Leader. They will keep you apprised of team meetings, retreat dates, forms to be completed, & assist you as needed.
We look forward to serving you.
