Summer is a wonderful time to help children discover the stories of courageous believers who carried the Gospel around the world. Missionary biographies introduce kids to faith, perseverance, compassion, sacrifice, and the joy of sharing Christ across cultures.

Summer is filled with adventures, vacations, pool days, camps, and family fun. But what if your family could also spend the summer growing in compassion, hospitality, generosity, and a love for the nations? We have 25 fun missions activities for your family to do this summer.
