How To Stress Missions In Sunday School

S ometime AGO several Sunday School leaders across America were asked . . . “How do you stress Missions in your Sunday School?” Here are some of their suggestions: C orrespond B y T ape R ecordings . Occasionally have a departmental superintendent r e c o r d a Sunday School worship assembly. Be sure to have several personal testimonies from the students. A group photo of the department also would be appre­ ciated. In return, the missionaries will tape or record some of their services, news and testimonies from their fields of service. “Recordings and tapes,” says Larry McCracken of Oakland, California, “build up in­ terest in our school.” A rrange C urio D isplays . Curios can be obtained from missionaries who visit y ou r church. Why not write to the missionaries before they come home on furlough asking them to purchase some curios with the money you send for this pur­ pose? Arrange these curios, or even things you can get at “ around the world” gift shops, in an attractive display. “ A mission center,” says Mrs. Howard Hendricks o f Dallas, Texas, “will teach missions.” Don’t forget to label all items so the young as well as the old can understand what they are. A small photo of the missionary or mission station will enhance the display. C ollect I tems M issionaries N eed . These can be Christmas boxes or any list of items always

needed on a mission field. Classes or departments find it very exciting and interesting to collect items listed and needed by missionaries. Mrs. I. Wiler of Phoenix, Arizona, writes, “ In a class party, the Primaries cut quilt blocks for Indian women. Our students also enjoyed collecting used stamps to be sent to our missionary in France, who in turn sold them to stamp collectors in France.” A dopt an O rphan . Mrs. E. Pick­ ering of Calhoun City, Miss., writes, “One Sunday I asked my Junior High class if they would be inter­ ested in adopting an orphan from some foreign country. They were keenly interested and selected Korea. Through our Church Mission Board, we soon were in contact with a Mis­ sion working in Korea, who gave us the name of a Korean orphan. Our class is small but we have been able to meet the goal of $5.00 each month for our adopted Korean orphan. It surely has made my class of young teens mission-minded.” Other things we could suggest are displaying photos of missionaries, using missionary s t o r i e s , having missionaries speak and teach Sun­ day School classes, showing mission­ ary films, filmstrips and slides, cor­ responding with missionaries, and using missionary prayer lists. Be creative! Clearly think through your plan for teaching missions — then work your plan. It will pay great dividends, and bring glory to the Lord.
