Neighbors Helping Neighbors Background Neighbors Helping Neighbors (NHN) started in the summer of 2013. The vision of this program is to provide an affordable mission experience for youth groups that are regional or small in size, who may not have a viable mission opportunity. Its focus is to draw from church congregations with 150 or fewer in average Sunday attendance or from churches in the Mountain T.O.P. service area. One of our desired outcomes is to see local residents and NHN participants eventually be on Summer Staff. We are excited to report that this year two of our staffers were NHN alum!

I am going home and I am going to begin looking for places I can serve. I know now that I don’t have to solve the problem. I just have to be the light. I can do that. I can be a spark.
