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.

Today in the Mission Yearbook: May 19, 2013


MINUTE FOR MISSION: DAY OF PENTECOST / PENTECOST OFFERING - Beginning in August 2008, I served for 11 months in Nashville, Tennessee, as a Young Adult Volunteer (YAV). That year was a challenging and transformational year for me. One of the most important lessons I learned during my YAV year was the importance of hospitality. I witnessed incredible expressions of hospitality in the church that hosted the YAV program, through my agency, and in the many communities I was involved with.

In particular, my experiences as a YAV helped me to understand better the many different facets of the hospitality we are called to as Christians.
