Service projects and mission trips are increasingly popular within households, congregations and youth groups. Yes, it feels good to serve! Yet, for service to lead to transformed, faith-filled lives, it needs to be informed and intentional. This unit offers approaches to Service and Learning as a way of life based on our call to serve our neighbor as Christ loved and served us. Participants will be engaged and equipped through hearing God's story, presenters' personal experiences, a theology for serving, research and examples of "how-to's" and things "not-to-do."

 

Are you wondering how to:
• Be God's hands in restoring God's world?
• Authentically connect households and the congregation with one's neighbors, locally and globally?
• Lead effective service and mission experiences that engage children, teens and their care-givers with "the other," encountering Jesus along the way?
• Equip all generations to know God's story and to practice the Christian faith at home and in daily life?

 

This unit is for:
Anyone planning a mission trip or service project * Youth who want to make a difference * Youth  &  Family Leaders *  Parents, Godparents or Grandparents * Faith Formation Coordinators * Christian Educators * Mentors * Book of Faith Advocates * Pastors * Mission Developers * Young Adults going into the world to serve * All caring adults * Companion Synod & Global Mission Teams.
