Mission Magazine in the Library

by: Stefanie Parsons

Check out these articles in the mission magazines on the shelves beside the computer room:

In Mission Fields (Fall 2006) you can read about Canadian Olympian, Cindy Klassen who visited MCC projects in Nigeria and Ethiopia and talked with AIDS patients undergoing antiretroviral therapy.

The Evangelical Mission Alliance’s Team Horizons magazine (2006-2007) has many great articles with big, glossy pictures notably, The Face of Islam which outlines the ways that the Western media is unbalanced when portraying Muslims. And Megan Darreth writes about the decline of traditional churches in Europe in the article, Board Up the Cathedrals.

Last year’s issue of Internationals on Campus is focused on Asian students studying in American universities and introduces a plan to help them explore the Bible with other international students who are Christians. There are also many insightful student testimonies about how they came to a relationship with Christ through friendships with believers at university.
