Trip Description

GO TENNESSEE Family

If this is your first time on a GO Team or if you have a heart for service, our trip to the Ability Ministry in Tennessee is a great way for you and your family to serve together! You will travel to the beautiful hills of Tennessee near Knoxville, to serve at Riverwood, a residential facility for adults with special needs. You will never view this community of people the same way after spending time with them at Riverwood. During the daytime the team works at the facility to do maintenance and special projects for the residents. Service opportunities include landscaping, cleaning projects, organizing and more. The best part of the trip, however is sharing meals with the residents and getting to know them. Come experience God’s heart in a totally new way through their eyes and learn how to love unconditionally!
