We’ve reached the end of week 2 of our Much Ado about Missions blog-hop series, and I can’t believe how quickly it has gone! If you missed the Introduction, be sure to read it, and if you missed Week 1, all about teaching missions in the home, you can find the links here.
This week we focused less on what to do within the home and more on missional experiences your family can participate in within your community and even the world. We choose to be intentional about making the most of such opportunities so that our children will develop God’s heart for the nations. In case you missed any of this week’s posts, I’ll share them here. I shared about missions experiences for the whole family in The Missions Experience. Sarah shared about making the most of holidays with Holidays and a Higher Purpose. Angie shared about involving your children in reaching your community in Get the Kids Involved.
In week 3, we’ll focus on the power of prayer! You can find Monday’s post right here at Being Confident of This, Wednesday’s post at Love Notes, and Friday’s post at My Four Monkeys.
Thanks for joining us in our endeavor to become more missions minded in our homes and families. I hope you have found inspiration to do the same in your own homes, whatever your “family” might look like. 🙂
In the meantime, consider what some of the most unreached peoples (now reached, Praise the Lord!) have to say about reaching the lost:
Does your heart hurt, too?

I grew up in a church with a Missionary Minded Pastor. He often had guest missionary speakers, and each year our church hosted a week long Missionary convention, with speakers morning afternoon and evening. Other churches cooperated, and the final sunday, we gave our pledges for missions for the year. Perhaps that is why I love missions and share with several worthy persons and organizations.

What an excellent example your pastor was, Hazel. 🙂 And thank you for sharing!
