“Have you asked God what he wants you to do with your life?” Father Ralph Beiting

A legacy of helping those in need in Appalachia

MISSION STATEMENT

The Father Beiting Appalachian Mission Center is an outreach ministry of the Catholic Diocese of Lexington serving the needs of the Appalachian region of Eastern Kentucky.

We will walk together in the Kingdom of God as a holy presence that impacts a community in need with spiritual and material support​​​.

Through face-to-face interactions, home repairs and safety needs, and programs for the youth and elderly we bring the presence of God and reach out to those in need.​


The King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’

— Matthew 25:40 - New American Standard Bible
