The Appalachian Coalfields Ministry, sponsored by NC Baptist Men, seeks to help meet the physical and spiritual needs of people living in the Appalachian Area.  One of the greatest ministry needs in this area occurs at Christmas.  The statewide goal is to collect 10,000 backpacks and the goal for West Chowan Association is 500.  As each backpack is given out, the gospel story is shared.  Your help is appreciated!

In 2017 our goal was 25 Backpacks and 30 backpacks were given!

Thank you to all who participated!!
