Student Missions

Mission Academy is First Methodist’s training ground for student mission. It is many students first overnight mission experience and the place where they learn what it means to GO out into the world for Jesus.

During Mission Academy, we want each student to ask:

• Do I make a difference when I serve?
• What are the gifts and talents that God has given me to further the Kingdom of God?
• Where do I fit into God’s plan for this city and this world?

The method is simple. We find a place where God is at work and we join him there… in worship, in service, and in community. That is the very heartbeat of what it means to follow Jesus and is our purpose on Mission Tour.

Field Focus is our highest-level missional discipleship program for upperclassmen. Each student is required to apply to be considered for the trip, as well as to attend weekly training meetings on Wednesday nights starting in March. As part of the missional discipleship program, students are also required to attend Mission Tour unless a special exception is granted.

Junior High Mission is designed to take our mission experiences to the next level outside of Tulsa. It is designed to show Junior High students that they can be the hands and feet of Jesus and be used mightily by God wherever they go. This is an amazing opportunity your Junior High students will not want to miss!
