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.

Today in the Mission Yearbook: February 20, 2014

BOLIVIA - I am a member of the Evangelical Methodist Church in Bolivia, which is a member of the UMAVIDA (Joining Hands for Life) network. I have been volunteering with UMAVIDA for six years, actively participating in the International Youth Environmentalist Congresses and events for youth leadership.

I am committed to ecological justice—the defense of the environment, including water—and see it as an essential part of seeking the kingdom of God and God’s righteousness. Both within and outside my church I testify that the gospel is not limited to the salvation of human beings but includes all creation, thereby obeying the Great Commission to go and proclaim the good news to the whole creation (Mark 16:15). We must reread Genesis, building bridges with the indigenous and popular movements of South America in order to prepare an agenda of liberation that treats the poor with justice.
