The Nehemiah Project is July 8-11, 2009. We will be staying at Reinhardt College and will do mission work throughout Cherokee County. The cost is $100 per person.
Overview
The Nehemiah Project is an event held to organize youth to serve God by serving their community. It is a 4 day event filled with daily worship, spiritual speakers, and community service. All youth in grades 6-12 are welcome to serve. Three days of community service will consist of painting houses, re-roofing, repairing porches, and other general home improvement. Each evening will have awesome worship, inspirational speakers, and tons of fun. It will be an incredible experience for youth! The Nehemiah Project will foster the development of servants' hearts, a love of missions, and a network of new friendships among local Christian youth groups. Youth from various local churches will come together for a three night stay at Reinhardt College. The event is hosted by Liberty Hill UMC. Check back for more details.
The projects will be throughout Cherokee County. We will stay in the dorms of Reinhardt College.
