Mission U 2024

July 19-21 | University of Mt. Union

Join us at Mission u as we explore what it means to draw closer to God and one another. Check-in is Friday, July 19 at 3:00 p.m., Mission U ends Sunday, July 21, 12:00 p.m. The Executive Team will meet on Friday, July 19 from 1:00-3:00 p.m. in the Campus Center Alumni Room.

Jesus told his followers the kin-dom was among them (Luke 17:21). What does that mean? Who does Jesus say will inherit the kin-dom? How do we transform ourselves and our communities in ways that bring us closer to the kin-dom and the kin-dom closer to us? We will dive into these questions and more at Mission u 2024 as we examine Scripture together and join in worship, fellowship, and action.

Come! Let’s explore together the heart of Jesus’ good news with a fresh vision.

Mission u 2024 offers three exciting curricula on this theme, order your copy here: uwfaithresources.org.

Adult — Welcome Home by Neomi Fletcher
The adult curriculum uses the image of home to explore how living in close proximity to the kin-dom is like making a home with God. Participants are invited to develop practices for building healthy, welcoming communities as a result of being anchored in the abiding love of God.

Youth — Cultivating Symbiosis: The Nature of God’s Kin-dom by Nica Sy
In Creation, we see the power of symbiosis, or interdependent relationship. The youth curriculum explores the idea of symbiosis between our relationships with one another and our relationship with God. By drawing closer to one another and our world, we draw closer to the kin-dom.

Children — Me in the Kin-dom by Kathy Cook
The children’s curriculum uses the Lord’s Prayer as a lens to help us see that we are all members of the family of God. Children will begin to understand that the kin-dom is living with Christ and one another on earth as in heaven.
