THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED MAKE THAT POSSIBLE!! Without the help of several area churches and individuals it would not have happened.

IMMEDIATE NEED

Each Thursday during Bible Study classes at 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM we are in need of additional volunteers to help with child care while parents and/or grandparents attend class. Three - four additional volunteers are needed for each class.  Four additional volunteers are needed during the 5:00 pm class when all of the babies that regularly attend are present.   Please understand this is an immediate need.  Our insurance requires that all volunteers submit to and pass a background check.  Please prayerfully consider volunteering and if you feel the Lord leading and would be willing help out, contact Sybil at  423/765-2950.  

Please continue to pray for the ministry at Gibsontown Ministries!  We continue to see God at work in the lives of those who attend.

Winter Weather Policy

If Sullivan County schools are closed or dismiss school early due to winter weather, Gibsontown Ministries will also be closed.  We follow this policy because many of our volunteers live outside the city in Sullivan County.

Happy New Year from Gibsontown Ministries!

Gibsontown Ministries wishes you a very blessed 2016!
