We conduct mission work in South Dakota, Kentucky, and other locations in the United States.
We have recently begun a new partnership with Olive Branch Ministries, in southern Kentucky. Each Christmas we contribute to the Shoeboxes for Appalachia program, and we look forward to mission trips in this area which will include a variety of service opportunities.
We have taken annual summer mission trips to a reservation in South Dakota since 2010. Our work has focused on the towns of Manderson and Porcupine and has included Vacation Bible Schools for children, Bible studies for adults, construction and repair of homes and churches, recreational events such as Bingo and Horseshoe tournaments, community meals, outreach to a nursing home and a jail, and financial support of schools and families. We interact with our friends in South Dakota throughout the year by way of letters, social media, and occasional trips in the fall or spring.
Our youth group’s annual mission trip is often to a destination in the United States. For example, our teenagers have ministered in Miami, FL, Arlington, TX, Jacksonville, AL, and Owsley County, KY, among other locations.
