Embark on a Transformative Journey:

Located in the heart of Floyd County and its surroundings, our Appalachia mission trips offer a unique opportunity to make a tangible difference. Volunteers engage in various activities, including:

- Home repairs for local individuals or families.
- Providing nourishing meals.
- Community outreach through events like game nights and potlucks.
- Renovations and repairs of public facilities.

Flexible Volunteering Options:

Choose from our diverse range of volunteer durations:

- Weekend excursions.
- Four-day trips.
- Full week-long adventures.

Weeklong groups typically arrive at 7:00 p.m. on Sundays, embarking on a week of service and fellowship, concluding with departure on the following Saturday morning.

Experience Appalachia:

Every Wednesday, take a break to immerse yourself in the Appalachian culture and nature. Enjoy hiking, swimming, and water activities like tubing or boating at a local state park.

Active Participation and Community Living:

Volunteers are integral in planning and participating in weekly outreach and ministry activities. Teamwork is essential for daily chores and meal preparation. Your evenings will be enriched with community dinners, game nights, and local music.

Transportation and Accommodation:

- Transportation is not provided. Upon arrival in Kentucky, your group must use its vehicles for local travel. Vans are recommended over buses.
- Stay in our unique community center, formerly a school, equipped with bunk rooms, bathrooms, and essential amenities.

Dining Together:

Meals are a communal affair at CrossRoads Missions:
- Breakfast: Team-prepared meals like pancakes, eggs, biscuits, and gravy.
- Lunch: Picnic-style with deli sandwiches, chips, cookies, fruits, and veggies.
- Dinner: Hearty, hot meals prepared by staff and participants.

Inform us of any dietary needs or allergies in advance. We strive to accommodate your requirements, though assistance in meal adjustments may be needed.

What to Bring:

Participants should bring their bedding and toiletries. A detailed packing list will be provided upon registration.
