Boomers on Outreach Mission

After a successful launch in September 2024, BOOM is back in 2025. For adults 60+ (though we’re not checking IDs!), Hinton’s Boomers on Outreach Mission will be offered September 28 – October 3. Participants will serve in Hinton’s Safe & Healthy Home Repair ministry, meeting and “walking alongside” neighbors in Hinton’s 3-county service area of Clay and Cherokee counties in NC and Towns County, GA. The mission week replicates the 10-week summer mission outreach experience for youth mission teams, but is adapted for adults, who will have 3.5 days for home repair projects, with Wednesday afternoon and evening free. Highlights of the week also include daily devotionals, Appalachian Culture Night, worship, and poverty awareness activity. Lodging is clean and comfortable, with bed linens and towels provided. And, each room has its own bathroom. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals or groups, with registration per person (no group registrations). Individuals coming from the same church may serve together on work sites. Hinton staff plan and coordinate work-site projects, provide all materials/supplies/tools, and lead worship and other programming.
