United Women in Faith (UWF) have a commitment to life-long learning. Mission u is a perfect example of how we put that commitment into action—and not just for ourselves, but to better reflect God’s love to others.

In 2023 we explored the heart of the good news of the kingdom, or kin-dom, focusing on The Lord's Prayer. This year we go deeper as we study the ways Jesus preached and ministered a proximity to the kin-dom. The study will focus on the invitation to posture our lives and be transformed in ways that bring us proximity to the kin-dom and the kin-dom's proximity to us.

Leading the study at Mission u for 2024 will be Rev. Laurie Kidd (all sites), together with Rev. Teri Johnson (Southern Site) and Pastor Becca Hafner (Northern Site).

"Welcome Home is an adult curriculum that explores how we can know God as an intimate friend who welcomes us. Abiding in God’s safety and dwelling in God’s provision, allows us to open our hearts to a fuller embrace of the power and presence of God so that we may find our home in God. Participants are invited to dig deeper into what it means to live in the kin-dom of God and how this helps us to develop practices for building and existing in healthier communities.

Author Neomi Fletcher leads participants through a journey in eight one-hour explorations that start with examining home and redefining what it means in light of Scripture’s repeated invitations to dwell with God as individuals, community members, and persons of faith."
