Laurelville Mennonite Church Center

Laurelville Mennonite Church Center is a conference and retreat center in the Laurel Mountains of southwestern Pennsylvania, providing hospitality year-round to churches, youth groups, and family reunions, as well as occasional school groups, synagogues and service clubs. Programs focus on marriage enrichment, equipping music and worship leaders, developing leadership from an Anabaptist perspective, and exploring work and faith. Volunteers have the opportunity to serve guests in our dining hall and kitchen, painting, carpentry, housekeeping and general maintenance. During the warmer months, grounds keepers are needed. Occasionally we utilize volunteers as program hosts, guest service providers, mechanics or office assistants. Most volunteers serve in several roles during their stay. If you have a skill that you would like to offer, but don’t see it listed, contact us! Laurelville welcomes help any time of year, but help is most valuable in the spring, summer and fall. We are open to flexible schedules and varying lengths of service. Lodging: A 2-room apartment is usually available for volunteers. However, sometimes volunteers stay in a motel-style room or small cottage. RV sites are available in a quiet spot just beyond the main campus. Meals and lodging will be negotiated according to preferences and the number of hours worked. Typically, for full-time or nearly full-time work, lodging and most meals would be provided.
