Chattanooga Youth Mission Trip July 13th-July 18th, 2025
We are asking all interested students (current 8th graders and up) to complete this application to serve in Chattanooga, TN at Widow’s Harvest Ministries. Widow’s Harvest exists for the purpose of defending the cause of the widow. One of the greatest areas of need, on a global scale, for widows today is housing and home maintenance. Widows Harvest Ministries has made both major and minor repairs on thousands of widow’s homes in Chattanooga. Our focus will be helping Widow’s Harvest with the home maintenance projects and painting. We will be staying in dorms at Covenant College where our breakfast and lunches will also be provided. This is a great opportunity for us!
