Repairing Sub-standard Housing in Cumberland County

This upcoming year, we would like to again use our talents and resources here in Cumberland County helping those in need with their home repair.  We know there are more families that need to be served, and we also know there are willing hands and hearts in this county that God will use to touch lives through this Ministry.  We just completed a successful 2010 session and are beginning to plan for 2011.  Your help is needed to pray, plan, sponsor, fund raise, recruit experienced or skilled helpers, youth, adults, food, supplies, tools, and the list goes on. 

 

ER Ministries asks our local business men and women to partner with us in 2011.  Donations of building supplies, food, or money to purchase supplies will greatly advance our community wide effort.  Please join the Cumberland County ER Ministries Mission Team by donating time, money, or supplies to improve the homes and enrich the lives of residents of Cumberland County.

For the four years prior to 2007, the Cumberland County Parish had sent groups of youth and adults on a youth mission trip to Service Over Self (SOS) in Memphis, Tennessee.   These groups repaired homes for residents in some of the poorest neighborhoods in Memphis.  Youth  roofed, painted, rebuilt bathrooms and kitchens, as well as conducting other repairs.

In 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 our youth put their talents and resources to work right here at home in Cumberland County Kentucky.  There were families here that we served, and there were willing hands and hearts that God used to touch lives through this ministry.

We needed plenty of help to plan, raise funds, recruit experienced helpers, youth, adults, food, supplies, tools, and more.  No doubt, there was much that we learned during our first three solo years.  With God's help, we accomplished all the tasks that we planned and had a wonderful worship experience along the way.  We received more blessing than we gave and expect to continue our local efforts in 2010.

Thank each of you for your interest and generosity.
