Missionary Journeys: Stories of Faith and Obedience will be held every Tuesday from 11:10-12:10 PM Grades 4-6th
Students who enroll in Missionary Journeys will learn about 12 people who said yes to God's call on their lives and walked in obedience through times of struggle, suffering, and uncertainty. We will discuss what the call of God entails and who it's for (hint: it's for ALL Christians!)
Students will be equipped, encouraged, and empowered by the testimonies of the saints that have gone before us.
