In this unit of Missions Journey: Students, students hear from David Carey who serves as a hospice chaplain in Maine.
David ministers to patients and families facing the end of life. He offers spiritual care, prayer, and comfort, often through music and relational presence.
In these moments of deep grief and vulnerability, David finds that hearts are often more open to hearing the hope of the gospel.
David also shares his own journey from being uncertain about his future after high school to eventually becoming a hospice chaplain.
Involve your teenagers in ongoing missions discipleship and empower them to discover their own roles as disciples of Jesus who live on mission. Through each unit of Missions Journey: Students, teens will meet missions personnel serving all around the world, be encouraged to grow in discipleship, and become active agents of gospel change in their own communities.
This fully-digital resource contains plans for four weekly sessions, including links to the missions videos, missions project ideas, supplemental activities, prayer activities, and a leader devotion.
This material is designed for students in grades 7–12. WMU recommends adult leaders preview all lesson and video content before sharing it with their students.
