NOMADS... a volunteer adventure!

Tell us about your Adventure!

Have you ever wondered what your retirement adventure would look like? Maybe you thought you'd travel, or maybe you thought you'd volunteer some. Both are  exactly what this retired couple from Maryland do in their retirement.  They volunteer for NOMADS.

NOMADS stands for Nomads on a Mission Active in Divine Service and is a ministry of the United Methodist Church.  When Rodney and Tammy Ripley retired, they knew that volunteering  was going to be part of their retirement journey.  As we learn in this episode to be a NOMAD all you need is an RV (or some sort of camper) and a servant's heart.  As part of the NOMADS organization, Tammy and Rodney travel for a three week mission trip in the United States with others to perform a service several times a year.
