            • Community Outreach
            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.

                                        Our goal is to talk with groups/ministries that are interested in serving in our Border area. 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.

No experience needed. Volunteers are needed to perform "Brush With Kindness" projects. These are exterior minor home repairs as well as yard clean up. Both these activities are in partnership with low to mid income residents. Homeowners are required to work alongside volunteers. Our main funding source for purchasing building materials for these programs are our ReStore (building materials thrift shop); Furniture Store and Thrift Shop. We are required to use new materials in new house construction. Store volunteers are needed.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Walls are already completed with work left to be done on roofing, plaster, and finishing. 2) Church Construction - The Methodist Church in Tanzania is in need of assistance in creating homes for their churches to meet in and church construction on several churches in Magu. 3) Medical Clinic/Community Health Seminars - The church at Magu has a fully functional, new medical clinic. The clinic is fully licensed and the doctor operating the clinic is retired from government service with many years of experience. The clinic would welcome medical teams to help with the never ending case load as well as helping lead public health seminars. 4) Church Seminars - Magu is the headquarters of the Methodist Church in Tanzania.

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.

Christian service comes in many forms and they believe that they have been called to provide opportunities for churches in Costa Rica and churches from other countries to serve one another and explore what it means for us to be part of a body that extends far beyond the walls of our own individual churches. Their hope is that they might be able to help foster long lasting, fruitful relationships between the congregations who participate in this ministry. It is very important to them that they avoid establishing or reinforcing already existing relationships of dependency, but rather, that the churches involved will discover the benefits of interaction with one another. They understand the communion that takes place across borders, cultures and languages as a glimpse of God's Kingdom and as a sign of the work of the Holy Spirit among us.

Each project (now about 55 in total) has a common vision of providing a place for children to experience the kingdom of God and feel loved, respected and welcomed. It is a place where they learn, develop and exercise kingdom values and programming is based fundamentally of Christian Education, Educational Support, and Sports and Recreation. There are other activities provided as well, and they are all aimed at providing children opportunities to grow in their faith, develop personal agency, succeed academically, and experience new opportunities that inspire them. Project preference for VIM teams in in the missionary regions (Northeast and North of Country) and for first times teams, the southeast part of the country (Sao Paula, Minas Gerais). Advance # 11580A 2) John Wesley Boat - Manaus, Amazonas - The boat travels to river villages that only receive sporadic assistance and most major medical and dental needs must be filled in the capital which is a several day boat ride away. Preventative medicine is almost non-existent and the John Wesley Boat reaches thousands of people each year and the work teams travel to specific areas where help is needed. The local villagers know when the boat is coming and come by the hundreds to receive help. The boat also has training events to work with the villagers in preventative medicine and dental hygiene. The medical boat is source of relief for thousands. Advance #1475

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.

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.

Global Ministries’ very basic commitments are to the development of churches and communities globally. We continue to affirm the primary role of local ministries, mission, and leadership and to be in mission with them through the Nationals in Mission program. The Nationals in Mission is a position of service where local leaders serve in emerging, innovative ministries and enhance the development of Methodist and Ecumenical leadership programs around the world. The General Board of Global Ministries supports national leaders through the Nationals in Mission program with a salary supplement for a determined period of time.

These bridges in Vermont were washed out during both of the July 2024 floodings. We urgently need volunteers to help. If you have skills in concrete work, welding, skid steer operation, excavator operation, bridge building, or carpentry, your assistance would be invaluable.
