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.

Faith Presbyterian Church in Maspeth, Queens, has outgrown its building and now rents additional commercial space for its burgeoning ministry among Korean Americans. Olivet Presbyterian Church in Staten Island converts its only church school classroom into an eight-bed women’s shelter and hosts dinners, parties, and outings that bring congregation members and shelter guests together.
