UPDATES ON RECENT FLOODING

Greetings from the West Virginia Ministry of Advocacy and Workcamps. We invite you to join us during 2009 to help repair damage and bring hope to victims of extensive flooding and other disasters, including poverty, in our state. We are a year-round work camp ministry, and can add you to our schedule for spring, summer, fall or winter.

We have four group housing locations, at Montgomery, Colcord, Kopperston, and Welch, WV. (see website for housing locations.) They are all associated with local churches, and each has shower facilities and fully-equipped kitchens. There is a lot of interaction with the local congregations, including worship, Bible Schools, conversations, and cookouts.

Your fees cover the cost of the building materials that are used in the projects. They are $210/person/week, or $52.50/person/day for trips shorter than a week. You also have a day off to enjoy beautiful West Virginia, where you may decide to go whitewater rafting, visit an exhibition coal mine, go to an outdoor theatre, visit one of our state parks, or just hang out in the neighborhood. You may reserve a spot on our schedule by contacting Joan West Stewart, 304-779-2870 ; joanandtim @suddenlink.net.
