Use Reach Week as a Time to Discover Your Unique Life
Mission
“What do I need to discover about my world?”
- God has a mission for the world and is already working to
reach out to the hopeless, hurting, and lost people groups.
He has invited us to respond to his call to join Him at work
around the world.
- Joining God at work around the world may mean crossing the
street. The nations of the world are now in Seattle and the
Puget Sound area. Lake Washington school district alone has
over 150 languages represented! There are many opportunities
to reach around the world without even stepping on a plane.
- You have something unique to give! God desires to use your
gifts, passions and life experiences as a unique life mission
to the world.
“What is a unique life mission?”
It is allowing God to use your gifts and abilities, life and vocational
experiences (both the good and the bad), and passions and interests
for the Great Commission of reaching out to people with Christ’s
love.
The following
options are JUST THE BEGINNING in this great adventure. Plan your
schedule for the next 30 days by committing to some of these suggestions.
Keep these commitments with you as a reminder in discovering your
life mission.

but only a few workers to help harvest them. Pray to the Lord,
who owns the harvest, that he will send more workers to gather
his harvest." Matthew 9:36-38
