Hinton Center’s Mission Outreach Program offers year-round opportunities for mission teams, church and civic groups, families, and individuals. Serve for a week or weekend on Safe and Healthy Home Repair projects in our Appalachian community. Projects may include: building ramps, porches, and steps; underpinning mobile homes; painting; repairing floors; and yard work. We emphasize relationships! Through hands-on work and “walking alongside” our neighbors, mission participants open themselves to being served in return, learning that we all have needs and we can help each other. We focus on serving Clay and Cherokee counties, NC, and Towns County, GA. We serve folks who live in poverty, many of whom are single parents, the elderly, individuals with disabilities, or people who are underemployed or unemployed. We encourage all of our volunteers to build relationships with the neighbors they serve and to learn their stories. Mission teams and local volunteers truly impact the lives of our neighbors. Since spring of 2023, over 50 homes have been worked on, with more than 200 projects completed. Our local Woodchucker volunteers lead the efforts in our firewood ministry, helping provide 700 truckloads of firewood annually. GROW Our staff incorporate learning goals into every part of our mission outreach programming. One goal is for each participant to grow in understanding Appalachian culture and rural poverty. While there are unique dynamics and challenges, there are also unique assets. Another goal is spiritual growth. We offer intentional time for learning more about and reflecting on Christ’s teaching to love God, our neighbor, and ourselves. Community building is also a goal, for your group to grow in relationship with one another and others you encounter. RETREAT Your time at Hinton will include lots of physical labor, however, you’ll also experience the hospitality of being a guest at our comfortable retreat facilities. Enjoy afternoons at the lake, playing corn hole, taking a prayerful walk at our labyrinth, and enjoying delicious meals by our dining staff. Although we focus on serving our local community, we also want you to have a formative time to rest, reflect, and renew.

We will match gifts of service they bring with opportunities in our area and partner them for a meaningful mission experience for both. We also have opportunities to learn about the culture of the US/Mexico border area; working with refugee/immigration ministries and more. Opportunities to serve on either side of the border (US or Mexico) exist.

We coordinate for our volunteer groups to do a variety of service throughout their week at local organizations. Organizations can change year to year; but typically volunteers will be volunteering at a food bank; domestic violence shelter; refugee resettlement agency; urban sustainability farm; beautification project; or homeless/wrap around services agency. Each of these organizations has professional volunteer coordination; and they plug in our groups depending on the age range and the day-to-day needs of the organization. Activities can range from sorting and organizing food donations; stuffing backpacks for a give-away; sorting through clothing donations; pulling weeds in an urban garden; giving out food directly to the unhoused community on the streets; cleaning apartments that are being prepared for women entering a domestic violence housing program; and much more.

Our approach focuses on maintaining local ownership, empowering local leadership, and identifying local solutions. Our mission teams are focused on training and equipping local staff to do the work because we believe that the best way to make a lasting impact is to empower the local community to take ownership of their own development. By training local staff, we are not only providing them with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed, but we are also investing in the future of their communities.

This facility will be used for a variety of purposes. When a disaster strikes in the area it will be used for Early Response Teams. During Long Term Recovery VIM rebuild teams will be using the facility - as they are right now to repair and rebuilt homes. Long term; when we are not responding to disaster it will be utilized to host mission teams who come to work in the area on homes in this low income area. Hopefully; they will offer other opportunities thru opportunities like VBS.

Join us for a rewarding volunteer project to refresh the exterior of our lodge! We are seeking enthusiastic volunteers to help us apply a new coat of paint, enhancing the beauty and longevity of our community space. This project not only revitalizes the lodge but also fosters camaraderie among participants. Supplies will be provided, and no prior painting experience is necessary. Come out and lend a hand, enjoy some refreshments, and take pride in making a significant improvement to our beloved lodge. Your involvement will help create a welcoming environment for all who visit! The process will begin with thorough preparation, which may include some repairs to the wood, scraping away any old paint, and cleaning the surfaces before applying primer. Following this, volunteers will work in teams to paint the lodge, giving it a fresh and vibrant look. All necessary supplies will be provided, so no prior painting experience is required. After the painting is complete, we’ll wrap up with a clean-up and final walk-through to admire our collective effort.

Solar Oven Partners is an Advance Special mission founded and located in the Dakotas Annual Conference. Through this mission, volunteers manufacture components of solar ovens which we ship, unassembled (Ikea-style, as I like to describe it) to the locations where they will be distributed, currently the Dominican Republic and Sierra Leone and The Navajo Nation in New Mexico and Arizona. Volunteers in Mission travel to these locations to assemble ovens and assist in the two-day cooking seminar for oven recipients. We cook in the ovens with the recipients and conclude each seminar with a meal of solar-cooked food.

Operation Classroom is a non-profit organization that partners with the United Methodist Church in Liberia and Sierra Leone in an effort to empower the people to rise out of poverty through education. Operation Classroom in partnership with Liberia United Methodist Church provides scholarships for young women and men to attend Secondary School. These students' progress is carefully monitored by our partners in Liberia to assure the students grades, attendance and conduct are meeting the requirement of their scholarship. Our support is particularly important to help boost the teacher salaries as UM schools do not receive government support for their teachers. In Sierra Leone, we have scholarships for assisting the Secondary Schools by covering the fees of students who need assistance. These students are monitored to be sure they are meeting the requirements of the scholarship. Less and less support is needed for the UM Schools because the government is funding teacher salaries for all certified teachers. The Taiama Enterprise Academy (TEA) is an innovative boarding school that has the potential to break the cycle of poverty through developing the entrepreneurial side of creative, hard-working young men and women.
