We will get straight to the point. We need your help. The Mason County Ministerial Association has loved our neighbors on behalf of many churches for years. Every Monday we have people walk through our doors in desperate need of help. Sometimes people in our community have no where else to turn and they come to us - the body of Christ comprised of believers like you - so that they can keep the lights on or warm their house for their children and other such needs. Often when they leave they are so touched by the generosity of churches and the love of Jesus Christ that they weep.

Unfortunately due to the great need in our community our finances are at a point where we may have to stop helping people. We average $800-1,000 a week but may need to put a pause on our ministry very soon. That is why we need your help. The Mason County Ministerial Association is only able to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ due to the generosity of churches and organizations who partner with us to build the kingdom of God.

People come to us for financial help but we also pray with people, give them Bibles, connect them to churches, and offer them spiritual counseling and friendship. If you or your church feels led by the Holy Spirit to help us make a difference for the kingdom then please consider donating to us with either a one time donation or monthly commitment.

Above all we ask for your prayers. We sincerely believe in the power of prayer and the Lord we serve. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your prayers and support and may God bless you richly.

FaithHealth Appalachia, in partnership with Marshall Health Network, has awarded more than 90 organizations across Cabell, Mason, and Wayne counties with life-saving AEDs through its AED Distribution Program! 💓

From churches and libraries to youth leagues and senior centers, these organizations now have the tools and training to respond to sudden cardiac emergencies—thanks to support from Senator Shelley Moore Capito and former Senator Joe Manchin III. 🙌

Each organization received a LIFEPAK CR2 AED by Stryker, known for its ease of use and real-time readiness monitoring, along with training provided by St. Mary’s Regional Heart Institute.

“This initiative represents the power of collaboration and our shared commitment to protecting every neighbor,” said Rory Chapman, Director of FaithHealth Appalachia.

📅 Distribution and training were completed in Cabell and Wayne counties on July 21. Mason County is up next on August 12!

FaithHealth board member, Monty Fulton, was awarded this week’s Hometown Hero award by WSAZ NewsChannel 3! CEO of the Facing Hunger Foodbank, Cyndi Kirkhart, made it all happen, though anyone would rightly agree Monty embodies the spirit of this award.

FaithHealth Appalachia is what it is and does what it does because of wonderful board members like Monty. We honor and appreciate him!
