About Adirondack Mountains

In Warrensburg, your group will partner with the community in park and home beautification projects, maintaining local gardens, serving the elderly, and assisting in facilitating Kids Club programming, while experiencing the beauty of the area’s vast rural wilderness. During the evenings, you’ll learn more from a community speaker about what the community is doing to help the marginalized and under-served, visit the Adirondack Mountains or cool off in Lake George at Million Dollar Beach and end your week with s’mores by a camp fire. YouthWorks has been serving in this community since 2007.

Please note: All information regarding service and community engagement activities are subject to change. We are actively working to identify community engagement and service opportunities in consideration of COVID.

We ♥ teenagers + We ♥ communities

Teenagers need to encounter Jesus outside their normal context to deepen their faith and broaden their perspectives. Plus, communities need to be valued—not as mere recipients but as partners who have stories worth sharing in.

When we bring the two together, incredible things happen.
