Deep within the Appalachia Mountains a group of 16 young adults joined six sisters from the Sisters of Charity Federation to be of service to the people of southeastern KY.
We demolished an old building. We painted, cleaned, dry walled and repaired homes and even built a dog house. We prayed together each evening, shared our experiences with each other and listened to the stories of the people we served.
We continue to hold the People of the Mountains in our hearts and prayers.
Would you like to change someone's life? The SCN Lay Mission Volunteer Program, sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, invites lay women and men of all ages and religions into service with economically poor people in Belize, Mexico, Appalachia and New Orleans.
