Red Bird Mission
Red Bird Mission and Clinic have been providing ministries in the region of the Appalachian Mountains since 1921. Today the need remains critical in this isolated, rural distressed area. Chronic poverty, lack of jobs, poor housing, and rugged mountainous terrain provide obstacles to a fuller life for the residents of this area.
Covenant UMC takes a mission trip each year in late September to help with "Community Housing Improvement". This Work Camp strives to provide home repair for low-income community residents and maintenance for Mission buildings and grounds. In addition to providing mission opportunities, there is an atmosphere where participants grow spiritually and gain a personal understanding of mission. Evenings are spent in Christian fellowship and learning about the diverse ministries of Red Bird Mission. To find out more, come to one our our Red Bird Mission meetings, we meet the second Sunday of the month at 1:15 pm in the fellowship hall.
