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.

PRESBYTERY OF MACKINAC, MICHIGAN AND WISCONSIN - For the past three summers, the senior high youth of First Presbyterian Church of Marquette (MI) have been raising money to go on mission trips.

Their first was to Common Ground Presbyterian Church outside of Youngstown, Ohio. Goodness Grows, a ministry of Common Ground, is an ecomission that grows food locally and teaches sustainable agriculture. The Marquette group learned how to build garden beds and about composting, planting, and harvesting. At the end of the week, they gathered at a farm outside of Youngstown, where they shared food they had brought from Marquette—Lake Superior whitefish, pasties, and cardamom bread.
