One with Christ, One with Each Other, One in Ministry to All the World

School of Christian Mission

2012 Desert Southwest Conference UMW School of Christian Mission
July 26-29 (optional weekend-only event July 27-29)
THAT ALL MAY HAVE LIFE

The theme of this year's SCM comes from John 10:10 where Jesus says,” I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” Classes will focus on the possibility of fullness of life as people of Christ. We will explore the causes and effects of poverty. We will walk with the people of Haiti as we continue to learn about that beautiful country. Finally, we will study our Bibles and learn about the issues of immigration throughout Biblical history. Issues like poverty and immigration were important in Biblical times and the same issues crop up today. Exploring and learning will keep us busy July 26 – 29. Of course, we will save some time for fun and renewing old friendships and making new friends as well.

Hope to see you there. Remember that you do not pay separately for registration and hotel this year. One fee covers everything!
