Hinton Rural Life Center

Mission is more than a trip—it is an opportunity to build relationships, strengthen faith, and serve alongside a community in need.

If your church has ever considered participating in a mission week, we invite you to attend our BOOM Mission Week Virtual Open House on Tuesday, July 28, offered at 12:00 PM and 7:00 PM.

Come learn what BOOM is all about and discover how your congregation can be part of this life-changing ministry.
