Adult Mission Trip 2025
Organization: Baptists on Mission
Why: Repair hurricane damage
Distance: 14+ hours drive time (from Grayslake)
Arrive: Sunday October 5
Work Days: Monday – Friday October 6-10
Depart: Saturday October 12
Transportation to and from: Interested folks can carpool or folks can drive separately. It is a long drive there and many of us will most likely take 2 days for the trip each way.
Where in North Carolina: I was asked to give 3 preferences
1. Rose Hill (Charity/ Duplin County)
2. Lumberton/Robeson County
3. Fair Bluff County
Cost: $20/day
Supplied by Baptists on Mission: Housing, meals, some tools, construction materials
They are quite busy as you can imagine with all the above counties in need of assistance.
We won’t know the exact jobs we will be doing until probably the week before we leave for the trip. Generally, the work falls into outside work like rebuilding porches, siding, etc. and inside work including repairing bathrooms, kitchens, and other rooms.
