What do NOMADS do?
NOMADS provide volunteer labor and tools
for all sorts of projects involving new, remodeling, repair, or re-construction
to churches, homes, camps, youth centers and other agencies. They also do
office/clerical work, sewing, and other miscellaneous tasks in support of mission
work for churches, youth camps, local mission organizations and relief agencies
via a local UMC church.
Here are some sample projects:
