“The potential outreach of this project is unimaginable. God is truly leading and will continue to impact lives in ways beyond what anyone can see at this moment.” — An H*VMI ministry partner

For almost fifty years H*VMI has been operating without a permanent “home.” H*VMI is at a place where a permanent location for ministry is not only a goal but a critical necessity for the continuation and expansion of our programs.  H*VMI purchased property and is almost ready to begin construction for a ministry center that will solidify H*VMI’s current ministry and enable the expansion of services to people facing life challenges locally, nationally and globally.   

A ministry center will provide a permanent location for CURRENT PROGRAMS:

  • Overnight and Day Camp programs for children, teens and adults with physical, intellectual and multiple disabilities.

  • Bible clubs and recreational opportunities for the people we serve.

  • Support groups for bereaved parents and for parents of children with a disability.

  • Training and internship opportunities for churches, college students, missionaries from other agencies and others seeking to minister to people facing life challenges.

A ministry center will provide a permanent location for EXPANDED PROGRAMS:   

  • Additional camping programs for people with a disability, including those with autism or profound intellectual disabilities.

  • Additional Bible Club(s) and community Bible studies for children, teens and adults with developmental disabilities.

  • Fully accessible outdoor recreation programs and special events for the individuals and families we serve.

  • Retreat opportunities for the people served by our camping and other ministries.

  • No-cost get-aways for bereaved parents or parents/caregivers of individuals with disabilities and other special needs.

  • Siblings’ Days (programs for siblings of a child with a disability) and Kids in Grief programs.
