Eastern Mennonite Missions Kingdom Teams expand into three locations

Kingdom Teams — or K-Teams, for short — are moving beyond Lancaster, Pa., where they have been based for the past four summers. EMM hopes to form two teams of K-Team summer staff to lead youth groups. EMM is excited to offer K-Teams in Lebanon, Pa., and Phenix City, Ala. Youth groups serving in all three locations will have opportunities to learn and grow in their walks with Jesus and will serve at-risk children. Learn more and sign up at emm.org/kteams.

Looking for a way to grow in community? Check out EMM's Advance program
Advance is an opportunity for young adults to connect with other young adults in a community setting while learning and growing in discipleship. Advance will begin in September with a week of discipleship training in a community "cohort" setting. Learn more at emm.org/advance.
