Our Last Western North Carolina Mission Trip

Summary of the September Western NC Mission Trip... gutters were replaced, a sagging deck was stabilized, a leaking mobile home roof was covered with sealant, and a back door and frame were rebuilt. That’s what the participants of the recent Western NC Mission Trip were privileged to do through the “Step By Step” Ministry in Clyde, NC. For five years our church has worked closely with this ministry led by Tony Oberley, Contractor, and Jackie Bolden, Case Worker and Volunteer Coordinator. This is a non-profit organization that has helped with home repairs for those who are disabled and or elderly. As of the end of this year, the doors of Step By Step will be closing due to lack of funds. Many have benefited from their extensive contracting skills, compassion and
generosity, and we will miss the opportunity of working with them. The World Service Ministry will be looking for new ways to domestically serve in a similar manner. We will keep you updated!
