It's a New Season!
We are stepping into a new season at the CRI Blue Ridge Base, shaping it into a place of refuge, renewal, and restoration. As part of this vision, we are launching Operation EnGedi—a transformative initiative to refresh and restore our property in preparation for a greater focus on post-deployment care, debriefing, and group retreats for CRI Responders.
Our first step in this journey is to give the CRI Base a facelift. On April 25th, 500 volunteers will arrive to paint every building on the property. But before they can begin, we need your help to prepare the way.
We invite you to deploy to the CRI Base from April 13th-19th for a powerful week of hands-on restoration, spiritual renewal, and deep fellowship.

Inspired by En Gedi, a biblical oasis of refuge, restoration, and life in the desert, this initiative reflects our heart for missions and the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20). Just as David found sanctuary in En Gedi (1 Samuel 23-24), missionaries and responders need places of rest and renewal to sustain their calling.
This week is more than just preparing buildings—it’s about restoring hearts, rekindling vision, and strengthening purpose for those who serve on the frontlines of crisis and missions.
