Keeping track of churches conducting outreach in their neighborhoods, here's some information out of Greenville, Pennsylvania. They may be looking for help. It might be worth a call.
First Baptist Church will be doing a HOMETOWN MISSION TRIP right in Greenville, Pennsylvania, on June 12-18th 2011. Plans are to seek those who need work done at home such as dry wall, electrical work, visitation, landscaping, VBS for the kids in the area, as well as, visitation with the elderly. The group is even willing to run errands for those without transportation.
Currently, approximately 80+ people that have signed up for this MISSION TRIP - just from First Baptist Church. First Baptist will partner with another local church in the area.
Housing: Volunteers are welcome to pitch tents in the church yard. There is also plenty of space for campers on the blacktop parking lot.
Meals: Three meals a day will be provided to all volunteers.

There will be Bible study and Praise and Worship for the workers and adults from the community. Each volunteer will be given a t-shirt and journal to use to help document their experiences on a daily basis, as well as bible study. What a way to record memories of an event such as this.
The ball is rolling for this great adventure and we are excited about this opportunity to serve in our Hometown. The scriptures say “charity begins at home” it doesn't just mean in our house. It includes the town you live in as well.
THEN I HEARD THE VOICE OF THE LORD SAYING” WHOM SHALL I SEND? AND WHO WILL GO FOR US?” AND I SAID, “HERE AM I, SEND ME!” Isaiah 6:8
Please keep First Baptist lifted in prayer as they prepare to do the Lord’s work right in their hometown of Greenville, Pennsylvania.
