School of Christian Mission

Each summer the North Texas Conference UMW offers thought-provoking and informative courses in their School of Christian Mission. School of Christian Mission is a great way to grow in faith as well as to study timely issues from a Christian perspective. This year’s mission studies include:

* Geographic study: Haiti: Challenges and Hope
* Spiritual Growth study: The Journey: Forgiveness, Restorative Justice and Reconciliation
* Topical study: Joy to the World!: Mission in the Age of Global Christianity

The same studies are offered to children and youth at an age-appropriate level. Childcare is offered for very young children.

For your convenience, School of Christian Mission is offered either during the weekday or over a weekend each summer.  Please check back for more information.
Registration information will be posted in April.
