Recently, the Noah’s Ark Widows Ministry celebrated the successful completion of their 13th Annual Hiker’s Ministry, an initiative dedicated to supporting hikers along the Appalachian Trail. This heartfelt endeavor was born out of a personal tragedy when one of the members lost her husband while hiking on the trail. In response to this loss, the group decided to take action, providing assistance and supplies to those who traverse the scenic route.
Each year, the ministry organizes a collection of essential items, which they then distribute to hikers on the Appalachian Trail. This annual outreach not only serves the practical needs of those on their journey but also honors the memory of the member’s late husband, creating a legacy of compassion and support.
The Widows Ministry gathers on the first Saturday of every month at 9:30 AM at Ethridge First Baptist Church. They extend a warm invitation to all widows in the community, encouraging them to join in their mission of service and fellowship.
