The 9 Month Mission Trip mobile app has launched!
In Luke chapter 10, Jesus sends the 72 out to the towns and villages where He was about to go proclaim the gospel, heal the sick, and pray for people. So, they went out and when they came back they had amazing stories of how God used them. Sending disciples out to do ministry is an essential aspect of the discipleship process — our growth in Christ isn't complete without it! But how do we do this with the students in our youth ministries? Wouldn't it be great if there was somewhere we could send students to do the work of ministry each week and when they come back the next week they could share stories of how God used them? Their schools are the perfect place for that! Each day, your students are surrounded by people struggling with all kinds of problems and need to hear how much God loves them. We encourage students to make each school year a 9 month mission trip — not just going to school because they have to, but going because it's the place God is sending them!
We have something new to help students reach their schools this year. Today we are launching a mobile app designed to encourage students to pray for, care about, and share Christ with their friends who need Jesus. The app features stories by fellow students and ideas by youth workers from all over the country. It has several training videos and a list of ideas to help students make the most of this school year. Students can also share their stories, ask questions, and get connected with a local campus ministry near them.
You can download the app for free by searching "9 Month Mission Trip" in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store today! Take a look and encourage your students to download it too.
