MOVWC

MOVWC MOVWC is a project organized to give young people an opportunity to serve God by serving others who are in need. We have now painted over 300 homes in the MOV.

In 1999, local youth ministers from the church of Christ led approximately 100 young people from the area in painting six houses. We are currently painting approximately 40 homes each year with almost 500 teens and adults from up to 13 states. MOVWC is a non-profit organization that relies on congregational and individual contributions as well as area business to provide needed funding, food and supplies to successfully function.

The WorkCamp staff had been looking at ways to reinvent ourselves over the last couple of crazy years. With the closure of Ohio Valley University, MOVWC will not be taking place in the near future. We are not ruling out the idea of having some type of Work Camp-like experience in the coming years. We are so thankful for the many years we were able to serve our community together. Hundreds of houses painted, hundreds of lives changed, and thousands of great memories! We hope you will continue to serve the Lord in your communities! “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10

MOVWC will not be taking place this year. We hope your groups are figuring out ways to serve God in each of your communities and that God will be praised. We want to continue to encourage service and would like to offer $500 to ten groups to help them in putting on a community service project in their hometown. This could be painting a house or it could be something completely different. We simply ask that it involve teens working hard together and that it really blesses someone in need.To apply for this financial support please email [email protected] and inform us what congregation you are with and how you will use the funds to fulfill those two requirements. You must be from a congregation that has participated in MOVWC since 2017. By doing this, MOVWC will carry on this year by fulfilling our mission of training young people in kingdom service!

Well, if things were different we would be about a half an hour away from people moving into the dorms for another year of Work Camp. You would be gearing up to work hard, share God’s love with others, grow in your faith, and to encourage one another. On second thought, none of those things have been canceled. This virus may keep MOVWC from happening but it can’t stop what God can and will do through his people this week. So let’s do something awesome with this week and give God all the glory! Love you all!

Due to the restrictions and guidelines related to the Coronavirus limiting our ability to make adequate plans for this summer’s MOVWC and our concern for the well-being of our students and homeowners, MOVWC will be canceled this year. We know this decision is disappointing for many, but our Board has prayerfully come to this conclusion and hope that you will still find many ways this summer to serve and bless your neighbors and encourage one another always to love our neighbors and give God glory!

MOVWC Update- We are closely monitoring the news and are weighing decisions about this year’s Work Camp with a whole lot of prayer. We know you have lots of preparations to make and would like an answer ASAP. We are being advised to wait a couple of weeks before making a decision. There is a ton of preparation for Work Camp that is usually happening in March and April including the signing of houses. We will have to make a decision by May 1 if we will be able to hold this year’s camp. We appreciate your patience and your prayers!
