In Partnership with
NC Baptists on Mission
The SYBA Appalachian Backpack Ministry seeks to meet the physical and spiritual needs of people living in the coalfield region of Harlan County, Kentucky. On the mission trip annually, we deliver backpacks of food, toys, and hygiene items to underprivileged children in local schools. We partner with local churches to continue outreach.

This year’s mission trip will be November 13-14, 2025. If you would like to be a part of the team delivering filled backpacks and sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, please contact Mary Jordan at dmmrd@bellsouth.net
