Students living the gospel locally

KENTUCKY CHANGERS offers more than just a weeklong mission trip; we want to provide tools and training that equip your students for a lifetime of missional living. Participants engage in construction projects, times of worship and reflection designed to help them encounter and respond to God.

​Latest News


This year, after much prayer and discussion, Kentucky Changers and Kentucky WMU has decided to offer one Kentucky Changers project week. After having to cancel last year, it was not an easy decision to only offer one project week instead of three this summer, but we believe this is the best course of action in light of current circumstances. Below are some of the issues that played a part in our decision.

  • Ongoing uncertainty related to the COVID 19 virus and the roll-out of the vaccine.
  • Logistical complexity and difficulties related to the safety precautions and actions recommended by the CDC. This involves, cleaning and sanitation guidelines, prepackaging of food, social distancing and mask wearing, mixing of groups from different communities, and transportation.
  • Uncertain availability of school buildings or facilities for participant lodging.
  • Reduced capacity in whatever facility we have access to.
  • Lower that normal anticipated attendance (again related to uncertainty of the pandemic)
 
With that being said, we are please to open registration for our week of Kentucky Changers in Greensburg, KY. The dates are July 10-16. We are currently in the process of securing a place for lodging and will announce the location when it is confirmed.
 
Please note: Registration will be limited to 100 student and adult chaperone participants. After this number is reached, we will begin placing groups on a waiting list. If facility capacities can be increased as we get closer to summer, we will add groups to the project from the waiting list.

It is a Kentucky Changers requirement that adult chaperons accompany student groups. There must be one adult for every five student participants of the same gender. The adults at Kentucky Changers projects are participants in every sense of the word. We ask the adults to work with us, worship with us, as well as eat, sleep, and shower just like youth participants. Adults fulfill extra responsibilities by helping with encouragement, transportation, discipline and logistics. Their support will be invaluable to you as a group leader!

If the project is full, we will place your group on a waiting list, hold your check, and notify you of this action. If facility capacity restrictions change and we can include more groups, we will notify groups in the order that their registration is received. 

PLEASE NOTE  **The lodging location for the Greensburg project is tentative and will be dependent on facility availability. Possibilities include school buildings in the Green County Public School system as well as Campbellsville University. An announcement will be made when the location is confirmed.**

Through KENTUCKY CHANGERS we hope to cultivate a love for missions and ministry in the lives of our participants that goes beyond a week-long mission experience. As a partner with KENTUCKY CHANGERS, your financial gifts can help make this happen. 

KENTUCKY CHANGERS relies on the generosity of church and individuals to maintain and increase our ministry of mobilizing students for "hands-on" missions opportunities.

Student Ministry Team Members
Picture
Kentucky Changers has a ministry team of 4-6 young adults every year to work each project. The team helps set up at each project as well as provide other behind-the-scenes work. The ministry team also mentors younger participants as they work on projects, worship, and have free time.

​Adult Team Members & Crew Chiefs
Picture
​We need adult team members (formerly referred to as “volunteers”) on all the week-long summer projects. If you are 21 years-old or older, and have skills in construction, we need your help! By giving just one week of your summer, you can make a difference in the lives of students and homeowners in Kentucky.

* Due to facility capacities, student group limits, and fewer work sites, there will be a limit of 50 volunteer Team Members.
