Mountain T.O.P. Experience

Planning for 2010 summer ministries is well underway. An opportunity open to those at least 13 years old is Mountain T.O.P (Tennessee Outreach Project). Mountain T.O.P. is an Interdenominational Christian Mission, affiliated with the Tennessee Conference of the United Methodist Church, dedicated to rural life ministry in the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee. This dynamic one week mission project (June 6-12, 2010) engages approximately 120 campers from all across the nation in Christian community. Whether the project includes building a porch, painting a room, or repairing a fence, the service is founded in Christian compassion. All projects are considered minor home repair or maintenance projects which are planned by the staff of Mountain TOP. Each evening, the community gathers for dinner, a time of sharing about their day’s experiences, and worship. It is a time that allows youth to reflect upon how their service that day helped them to grow in their relationship with Christ. The Mountain T.O.P. experience not only provides the opportunity to be in service to others, it provides the opportunity to understand “why” we are in service.
