Welcome

Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these … you did it to me.

- Matthew 25:40 (ESV)

Mountain Mission School (MMS) is a non-denominational Christian mission located in Grundy, Virginia. We serve as home, church and school to at-risk youth from around the country and the world, and we are dedicated to helping “MMS Kids” grow to lead productive, Christ-centered lives that glorify God.

Since 1921, we’ve cared for more than 20,000 children. MMS Kids come to us from families torn apart by poverty, abandonment, divorce or death, or they come in need of safety from neglect or abuse.

MMS is not an adoptive service agency. We minister to children whose remaining family wishes to retain family ties or those for whom for other reasons adoption is not an option. So we offer families in need an alternative to adoption and foster care, serving as a full childcare facility for children with legitimate needs regardless of the child’s race, age, color or creed, operating as a nonprofit charitable organization incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

MMS does not accept any government funding. We operate entirely on private donations from churches, individuals and corporations, to the glory of God alone.
