Moving Mountains Youth Mission Trip

The Moving Mountains Mission Trip is a teen service mission supporting the Grace House on the Mountain in repairing and rehabilitating substandard housing in Russell and Wise counties of southwestern Virginia.

Grace House on the Mountain links volunteers with local homeowners needing assistance in a wide range of projects, such as building decks and other structures, painting, dry walling, installing rugs, repairing roofs (both shingles and tin), minor plumbing, repairing and/or replacing windows, repairing sub-flooring, etc.

The best part of our mission trip is being in fellowship with the families and the people you will meet. The Appalachian Mountains is a region with natural beauty and great people. You will get to experience both and learn how your effort can have such a great and profound impact.

Ministry Corner

Parish Life

Are you looking for a way to get involved in a ministry at Epiphany? Explore being part of Parish Life. Most often, this ministry is involved in shaping our various fellowship opportunities on Sunday mornings. But it also welcomes newcomers and coordinates other kinds of social gathering activities like Watermelon Wednesdays or Firepit Fridays. You can participate as a ministry committee team member, or you can offer to be contacted to participate in specific ways and times. For example, you could be on a call list for help setting up, breaking down, or cleaning up for events or activities. Talk with Anne J. if you are interested in learning more. There are a number of ways that you can get involved and we’d love to have you join us! Want to learn more about Parish Life? Look HERE.
