Student Mission Challenge 2011

Please note: Student Mission challenge for Fall 2011 has been canceled. Please watch for future SMC opportunities from LCMS Campus Ministry.

What is a Student Mission Challenge weekend? The title says it all:

Student

This event is for students—but not just any students. The students you encourage to attend will have a heart for living their faith and for leading in their college ministry so that more students come to know Christ and grow spiritually.

Mission
We will show your student leaders how every Christian is called to a mission to go and teach and to live The Way (see, e.g., Acts 9:2)—as well as how today’s college campus provides a perfect training ground for them to step further into a life of faith.

Challenge
Your student leaders will be challenged to take the calling to mission as a lifestyle, to see their surroundings as the mission field, and to pass on the challenge to others in their ministry.
