"The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few...
Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” (Matthew 9:37-38)

Hope For Appalachia is an opportunity to reach out into the world around us to provide much needed school supplies, warm clothing and gifts to children living in some of the most impoverished areas of the United States. The Spring Hill team travels to regions of Kentucky to minister to schoolchildren in rural, poverty-stricken areas to Bring Hope, Share Christ and Impact the World.
We have a team heading out April 11-16, 2022, and invite you to be a part of what God is doing! We will be bringing supplies to children in need and sharing the gospel message of Easter and salvation in Jesus Christ. Contact Team Lead Nat Hyatt if you're interested in supporting this amazing ministry to one of the poorest regions in the country.
Please PRAY for our team as we interact with these children and their families!

BUILD A BOX!
Want to help but can't go? Help us collect items for a HOPE Box! We hand out boxes full of toiletries and gifts to each of the children we encounter each time we go. But WE NEED YOU to help us pack these boxes and get them ready for us to take with us! See the suggested item lists below. We're aiming for about 150 boxes from Spring Hill. Will you help us? Contact team lead Nat Hyatt or the church office for more info. We are continuing to collect items for upcoming trips, so if you see great deals on any of the things listed below, grab them and help us fill the collection bins in the Missions Central Room at Spring Hill!
