Reach Workcamp

Cornerstone Church - A United Methodist Congregation Reach Workcamp

REACH is a non-profit organization that provides service-learning opportunities for Jr. and Sr. High youth groups. REACH encourages participants to adopt a lifestyle of serving those in need in their home communities by providing them with the skills to impact their world for Jesus Christ. Working with local agencies or local churches, the workcamps seek to make an impact on residents, communities, students, and adult sponsors who attend. It is a life-changing experience as workcampers participate in activities that build community and self-esteem, encourages spiritual growth, and enables them to understand their role in combating poverty. Relationships are the key to the ministry that the Lord has called REACH Workcamps to fulfill.

For the time of your life that will CHANGE your life....... Most people come to know Christ through relationships and continue to grow in their faith through relationships. We will read scripture, pray and talk about a personal relationship with Jesus and His call on our lives to reach out to people in need. REACH provides a structure for our adult leaders to extend and foster opportunities for our youth to respond to this call.		Our desire in participating in REACH is to change lives, to make an impact, to go beyond a fading memory and serve with the very nature of our being. Not only to serve by doing what is expected, but to cheerfully and enthusiastically do what is expected and beyond, giving all glory to God along the way. REACH Ministries’ program is firmly based in the Bible and spirit-led. This is evident in this excerpt from the organization’s belief statement. REACH believes that the Bible is the inspired Word of God; that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; in the deity of Jesus Christ; our only means of salvation is through the blood and grace of Jesus Christ.
In 2009, Cornerstone will will be sending 65 of it’s youth and adults to Peterstown WV. See details in the pane to the right. This trip is open to all youth entering 7th grade and higher and college age young adults. We are always interested in Caring adults to be a part of REACH as well.
