A partnership of South Charlotte United Methodist churches, including Light of Christ, will send a mission team to Haywood County this fall. Haywood County residents are still recovering from severe flooding which killed 6 people and displaced hundreds in August 2021. Our mission will be rebuilding. Construction experience is not required of participants; experienced leaders will train and guide the group.
Mission trip dates will be:
Sunday, November 5 - Wednesday, November 8
The team will travel to Haywood County (approximately a 2.5 hours drive from Charlotte) after work/school on the first day, then work the next 3 days on the job site, eat dinner on the last work day and then head home immediately after (or stay until morning if they prefer). A church will host us, providing beds and showers. Kitchen volunteers are also needed as team members.
