Nickelsville Partnership
The Nickelsville Mission trip is sponsored annually by the WMU of the Roanoke Valley. We partner with Tony and Jan Johnson, Virginia Baptists Venturers. Jan and Tony coordinate the mission efforts in this Southwest Virginia Partnership.
On this mission trip we have the unique opportunity to go into local schools. In the school we implement a program called BookNet. We read a book to each class, lead them in a craft project, and then have them select three books that they can take home to keep. Additionally, Tony lines up home repair projects for needy individuals, we assist in a local food pantry, and visit a nursing home.
Volunteers stay in what used to be a nursing home. It sleeps about 60 people as well as provides a home for Jan and Tony. Contact the RVBA office if you would like to be a part of this ministry.
