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. How often have you wondered, where are the young adults in the PC(USA)? Wonder no longer. The 2014 Presbyterian Mission Yearbook for Prayer and Study is devoted to the theme of young adults in the church. Its stories, many told by young adults, lift up how Presbyterians of all ages are engaging and joining with Presbyterian young adults in reforming the church for Christ’s mission.

HONDURAS - The Presbyterian Church of Honduras, the Heifer Project International, and mission partners, both national and international, all have a common focus of providing opportunities and encouragement to young people in Honduras.

In talking with people from the community of Cerro Azul, where Presbyterian mission teams have a strong presence, a young man named Oscar shared: “When we were living in the mountains, even though we were all poor and related in one way or another, we never felt the same sense of closeness and care for others as we do today. In our new community that we have built together, we have been able to build up our self-esteem and hope and have developed a sense of community that we did not have before.”
