What’s ASP?
Since 1978, the Senior Pilgrim Fellowship (SPF) of Greenfield Hill Church has participated each summer with the Appalachia Service Project, Inc., a home-repair mission organization based in Central Appalachia, and designed especially for high school youth. ASP is a Christian ministry open to all participants, encouraging teens to understand their home repair work as “faith in action.” Youth work full days, doing physical labor for families in need: it is a hard, but deeply rewarding experience. Our 2027 trip takes place from June 26 to July 3..
Requirements: ASP is the culminating experience of our year together at youth group; Appalachia trip participants are expected to be regular participants at SPF meetings. In addition, participation in the orientation meetings and the Dogwood Festival fundraiser is required.
An informational meeting about ASP 2027 will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 20, 7 to 8 p.m., at Greenfield Hill Church.
Applications for ASP 2027 will be available on this page after November 1. Please watch this page for updates!

Interested in serving as an adult leader?
The ASP trip can’t happen without a huge team of interested adults! And we promise — this is a powerful experience of service for adults as well as youth. We count on interested parents, church members, community members, teachers, older siblings! (minimum age for leaders is 19). While adults are not charged to participate, a donation of $375 is welcome and encouraged!
