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.

MINUTE FOR MISSION: EVANGELISM - When leaders at C. N. Jenkins Memorial Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, North Carolina, began using Engage, a Presbyterian Mission Agency resource, they started praying and reading Scripture together. In the process, their faith stories came alive, touching 94 people who made professions of faith, 63 becoming new members.
The congregation also became engaged in new service opportunities in its community, partnering with Covenant Presbyterian Church in “Impact Charlotte.” More than 800 volunteers worked together on 50 service projects.
