MS&M is a Christian relief and development agency, based in Appalachia, reaching out to those with the greatest physical and spiritual need in poor communities.

Knowing that Christ enables people to create new habits, break old habits and persevere to break the cycle of poverty, MS&M provides: 

 

  • Emergency Assistance for families in times of crisis, requiring food, shelter, and/or fuel for heat in the winter.  MS&M also provides home repair for the needy, elderly and disabled.

  • Basic Skills Development:  Training youth and adults in basic skills necessary to obtain and keep employment.

  • Leadership Development:  Empowering impoverished communities to solve their own problems and to help build a new base of leadership in the communities served through ongoing training and projects, 

  • Youth Work:  Leading programs such as a Back Yard Bible Clubs, Youth Recreation Programs and after school tutoring.

  • Economic Development:  Teaching others to fish, by supporting small businesses development.

 

Advent provides financial support to MS&M missionaries and since 2001 Advent's Youth Group has participated in MS&M missions at their worksite in Northfork, W. Virginia.
