RAM Free Clinic
Grundy | October 5 & 6
Our Appalachian Twinning Ministry supports this event by donating blankets and Walmart SCRIP cards for purchase of food. A dedicated group of volunteers assists throughout the weekend.
This year, RAM in Grundy is in need of volunteer dentists and dental hygienists!
If you or an associate is interested in participating, please text Frannie Minton at 276-698-5354.
Volunteering at RAM is a highly rewarding experience.
The need in Appalachia for medical care is great,
and the people who receive it are very grateful! -

Overview
The Appalachian Twinning Ministry (ATM) is a “twinning” effort between St. Michael’s and the four churches of Holy Family Parish in Appalachia. The ministry was established to help the parish churches provide for the significant needs of the community in this part of Appalachia.
It is important to point out that ATM is focused on the specific needs of the broader Appalachian community, and not just the needs within the parish. Leveraging the resources of St. Michael’s (as well as several other local parishes) and the Holy Family parishioners’’ knowledge and community involvement, the ministry works to identify and provide for these specific needs. -
