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. The stories in the 2013 Mission Yearbook were gathered around the question of Jesus to his disciples, “How many loaves have you?” from Mark 6:38. The book is filled with stories of God’s abundance in the face of overwhelming needs and a scarcity of resources.

ZAMBIA - When officers of the church of Central African Presbyterian, Synod of Zambia (CCAP Zambia), first heard about Community Health Evangelism (CHE) in 2010, their immediate reaction was an enthusiastic "Yes!" The synod is passionate about evangelism, but with 60 percent of Zambians living on less than a dollar a day, the cash-strapped synod struggles with Christ's injunctions to feed the hungry, clothe the naked and care for the sick. CHE, a grassroots ministry implemented by community volunteers, promotes both spiritual growth and community development with minimal financial resources.
