ER Ministries: Beginning 2003, the Cumberland County Parish sent groups of youth and adults to conduct home repair missions. In the beginning the trips were to Service Over Self (SOS) in Memphis, Tennessee, where the teams repaired homes for residents there. Youth roofed, painted, rebuilt bathrooms and kitchens, and made other repairs. Since 2007, our youth and adults put their talents and resources to work right here at home in Cumberland County Kentucky. Through Eternal Restoration Ministries (ER Ministries), the willing hands and hearts that God uses touches many lives.
