Put faith into action with this mission guide book

Building on the success of Call on Me: A Prayer Book for Young People, this book focuses on the themes and core values of youth ministries in the Episcopal Church. Youth seek ways to put their faith into action and claim their “power,” which is a hallmark of the millennial generation according to recent research. This book offers reflections and prayers to help young people do just that—to live out their faith at home, church, community, and beyond. It specifically addresses Episcopal identity for emerging adults, ages 15-25. Available in kivar or paperback binding.

"Marked for Mission brings together an impressive chorus of honest voices, young and ancient, to reflect on the foundations of our Christian practice in this complex era. This diverse community of texts will engage all faithful people as we strive to live for union with God in Christ."—Jane Alice Gober, St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Walla Walla, Washington
