Mission u (formerly known as the School of Christian Mission) is the primary mission education event for the Indiana Annual Conference and is planned and implemented by United Methodist Women of Indiana. In addition to the adult programming for ages 17 and up, there are two components:
The youth and children’s studies parallel the adult studies to create an intergenerational program. Studies are always Biblically-grounded, promote spiritual growth, educate and challenge participants to become more actively engaged in mission.
We will be assembling Christmas Shoeboxes for Red Bird Mission in southeastern Kentucky. Click the logo above for more info.
2017 StudiesChiMiCa: This is an exciting opportunity for children ages 3 through 5th grade (completed) to go to camp with mom or grandma and learn about mission. Children enjoy crafts, games and indoor and outdoor learning activities, while adults are in their studies. The title of the 2016 children’s study is Joined and Held Together.
YoPeMiCa: Middle school and senior high youth have the opportunity to participate in the In Mission Together mission study, share in meaningful worship, games, recreation and build friendships that will last forever.
During Mission u you will also have an opportunity to complete a commitment card or make a contribution to the Legacy Fund. [We are hopeful that every member of United Methodist Women make a gift to the Legacy Fund of at least $18.69 per year over and above her Pledge to Mission for five years (2015-2019).]
