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.

MINUTE FOR MISSION: MULTICULTURAL CHURCH / IMMIGRATION - "Stories of struggle. Stories of sorrow. Stories of laughter and tears. Stories of family separation. Stories from powerful and strong members of our community. That’s what I get to hear every day at the Southside Worker Center just through the act of being present,” shared Young Adult Volunteer Stephanie Quintana. The Southside Worker Center in Tucson, Arizona, is a ministry of presence. Volunteers stand with day laborers, some of whom are vulnerable due to their immigration status, in the early morning hours to make sure that prospective employers are willing to pay a fair wage and offer safe working conditions.

Presence, or accompaniment, is a valuable ministry of the church.
