Brothers' Keeper 2019 June 23 to June 28
 |
Brothers' Keeper is a non-denominational missional work camp where youth join with adults June 23-28, 2019 at Parchment Valley Conference Center in Ripley, West Virginia. Every year, the participants in Brothers' Keeper spread out across the Jackson County area to help those who are living who have tremendous needs but little means to meet those needs.
Our workers build porches, wheelchair ramps, steps, paint, tar roofs, repair drywall and do light construction and maintenance work that otherwise would not be done.
This incredible life-changing ministry has blessed hundreds of homeowners over the last two decades. It empowers and equips young people helping them learn what it means to be a servant. In return, so many souls are touched by the ministry - both those are served and those who serve.
We invite skilled laborers to join in this effort as our crew chiefs, volunteers to be chaperones and of course, youth and youth leaders to come along side us in this blessed opportunity to serve families across our region.
Our summer missionaries begin arriving Sunday, June 23 after 3 PM and we conclude our week on Friday, June 28 at 10 AM. Plan now to be a part of this wonderful experience and reach out to the world with the love of Jesus!
As always, we continue to value to your prayers and financial support! THANK YOU!

Remember:
As we serve, our actions and appearance speak loudly and have the potential to influence the community’s perception of Brothers’ Keeper and most importantly our witness for Christ. Choosing modest clothing helps to avoid distractions and misunderstandings both on the project site and in camp. We ask that you choose apparel consistent with certain guidelines.
You will bend, twist, sit, climb and crawl as you love and serve on our project teams. Shorts will only get shorter with these activities. Here’s how we define short: Let your arms fall to your side and if your fingers touch skin, bring a longer pair (whether you are male or female).

About Brothers' Keeper
Brothers' Keeper, affectionately known as "BK" for short was established in the year 2000. Based at Parchment Valley Conference Center reaches out every year to the community for mission projects. Most are construction projects for low income families or families with a handicapped member. Youth groups from around West Virginia and surrounding states have come in to do mission work in Jackson County, West Virginia.
Every year Brothers' Keeper serves over families all over Jackson County, all while developing a mind for mission work in over 100 youth missionaries and our adult counselors and crew chiefs.
At the center of yearly planning is gospel scripture from the book of Matthew, chapter 25, verse 40. What better way to serve Christ than by serving his creation?
