Girls in Action - Extras

Christmas in August 2012

During the month of August, children’s missions groups collect gifts for a select group of North American missionaries. The items are used to help these missionaries replenish ministry supplies, purchase items for ministry centers, and minister to people in their communities who need to hear about Jesus.

Help the children in your church get involved in Christmas in August® 2012:

Meet Me in the City

Meet Me in the City is the 2012–2013 theme for Girls in Action, Royal Ambassadors, and Children in Action. Children will “travel” downtown, uptown, and around town to learn about urban missions.

Christmas in August

Every year in August, children’s missions groups collect gifts for a select group of North American missionaries. These items help missionaries replenish ministry supplies, purchase items for ministry centers, and minister to people who need to hear about Jesus.

Does Christmas in August really make a difference? Yes, it does! Read testimonies from past Christmas in August recipients.

GA Journey

in

A new journey kicked off in the fall of 2011—the GA Journey!

Based on your ideas, this new individual achievement plan for Girls in Action® replaces WorldVenturessm.

GA Journey helps girls in grades 1–6 reinforce and live out the missions concepts they learn during regular GA sessions. This optional plan provides opportunities for individual GAs to deepen their missions discipleship and strengthen their faith.

GAs Say

in

Hey, girls! Do you have a question you want to ask other GAs? Or do you like to give advice? Then you’ll love “GAs Say”! This page in GA World is just for girls like you.

Children's Ministry Day

Each February, thousands of children across North America participate in ministry projects on the same day: Children’s Ministry Day.

Pen Pals

Most children enjoy writing other Girls in Action, Royal Ambassador, and Children in Action groups. WMU does not maintain a pen pal list. But leaders can exchange information on the Children's Missions Facebook page.

Mission Studies and Offerings

Many Girls in Action, Royal Ambassadors, and Children in Action groups participate in special missions emphases each year.

North American Missions Emphasis
Every spring, children can participate in the North American Mission Study, which is part of the North American Missions Emphasis. This study is provided by the North American Mission Board.

Ministry Projects

GAs, RAs, and Children in Action love to do hands-on ministry through ministry projects!

Each month, GA Leader, RA Leader, and Children in Action Leader suggest a ministry project for groups to do. Many groups also plan their own projects, based on the needs of their communities.

During our recent move, quite a few things of mine have turned up missing. For the most part, those things are replaceable. I haven’t lost much sleep over most of them. Until I realized that I didn’t know where my GA badges were.
