HIGHLIGHTS II

Posted by Picasa
Another of the neat things about a World Missions Workshop is the area of booths and displays that are always set up to provide information on mission activities and opportunities in various places and ministries. Featured are countries where efforts are underway, training programs where preparations for mission participation can be obtained, or sites where materials and supplies and services can be acquired which can benefit individuals or teams or congregations in their developing missions focus.

My eye was quickly drawn to the "Adventures In Missions" display presented by the AIM Program at Sunset church in Lubbock where young persons can receive months of training in Bible and evangelism followed by a mission placement in one of many countries of the world where practical field experience can be lived on a daily basis for perhaps 18 to 24 months under the guidance of a a veteran missionary family. Vancouver CofC has sent many teens to and through the AIM program, and we are happy with the results not only in the mission field but in the lives of the participants who become life-long advocates of gospel missions works.
