Hurricane Katrina Relief

Families throughout the Gulf Coast region suffered greatly in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, and their difficulties are ongoing. Hopewell Youth have traveled to Mississippi the past two summers to re-build homes and bring the Hope of Jesus Christ to those who have suffered great loss. In February 2008 a crew of Hopewell adults traveled to the Gulf region as well to partner with the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) in repairing homes damaged by the storm.

The Pittsburgh Project

Spend five days during the summer helping this very special ministry provide housing rehabilitation services for elderly and isolated residents in urban Pittsburgh. This is a youth-based mission trip with a need for adult volunteers. Have questions? Talk to Youth Director Johnson Dodla, who previously served on the staff of the Pittsburgh Project!
