We will be headed back to Mallory, WV this December!

The purpose of the Appalachian Christmas Outreach is to minister both physically and spiritually to people in some of the poorest areas of our nation. Teams serve in the states of West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, and North Carolina. Projects include week-long service in children's ministry, sports clinics, music, and construction, to name a few. Mission opportunities may also include the collection, delivery, and distribution of items such as food, school supplies, clothing, etc., which can be done in the course of a few days or over a weekend.

2022 Appalachian Christmas Outreach Mission Trip Recap

Our 2022 Mission Trip to Mallory, West Virginia to partner with the host church -

Big Spring Baptist Church and pastor, Rev. Perry Brown,

was December 1-5, 2022. The 2022 Appalachian Christmas Outreach mission trip was a great success!

“To God be the glory great things He has done.” Thirty-four mission workers from
eight different churches and one faith-based recovery ministry traveled to Mallory, WV
from December 1-5. We partnered with Big Spring Baptist Church.

Two hundred and ninety backpacks were collected from local churches and
individuals to be distributed to children ages 4-17 in the coalfield region in WV. The
group divided into six teams and went into six areas on Saturday as well as six different areas on
Sunday. Every one of the backpacks was given out. Each time a pack was given, the
gospel was given as well. Take a look at the pictures. They will give you a glimpse of
the ministry that took place and the joy that came with that ministry. We have already
committed to going back next year! Our goal will soon be set. It may be close to 325
backpacks!
