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.

In his resume Daniel described himself as “self-motivated, with a strong appreciation for, and belief in, NGO capacity to improve the welfare of Zambians at the community level.” From a North American perspective, Daniel’s leadership characteristics, social consciousness, and academic achievements qualify him as an excellent candidate for an entry-level professional position.
