Red Bird Mission project

Red Bird Mission

This past weekend 33 people of various ages from the Florence and Bellevue Vineyard travled to Beverly, Kentucky to Red Bird Mission. The goal was to help those with a basic construction needs.The projects included putting shingles on a roof, dry wall,building a handycap ramp,putting in a new shower(and bathroom),putting in a new floor(at the onsite doctor's home). Almost all the projects were completed, but with some rainy weather, and some other unforseen problems not everything got done. It was a great weekend, and a future trip is already planned for March '09.

The mission has ministered to the people of Appalachia since 1921. And with love and support it will continue into the future.
