Today in the PC-USA Mission Yearbook

The Mission Yearbook for Prayer and Study is a daily devotional with 365 inspiring mission stories that come from next door and all across the globe. It inspires thousands of Presbyterians daily as they uphold the mission of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in intercessory prayer. The stories in the 2013 Mission Yearbook were gathered around the question of Jesus to his disciples, “How many loaves have you?” from Mark 6:38. The book is filled with stories of God’s abundance in the face of overwhelming needs and a scarcity of resources.

REPUBLIC OF SOUTH SUDAN (continued) - Greeted by singing and dancing, we were transported into a churchyard where 30 women quickly surrounded us, put us in chairs, and began to lovingly wash our feet. That was my introduction to the women attending the Women’s Leadership Conference in Renk, South Sudan. That was the beginning of a week full of love, laughter, and overflowing baskets. How many loaves do I have? Too many to fit in the basket!

Since arriving in South Sudan, I have discovered my basket may continue to grow, but it is never too heavy to carry.
