Resources to Help You Lead Students

Do you need some tips and ideas for leading missions discipleship for students? If so, you’ve come to the right place! The resources, tips, and planning guides on this page will help you start and lead student missions discipleship in your church.

Teaching Students

No longer a child but not yet an adult, teenagers are living through a unique and formative time of life. That’s why it is so important to be sure students in grades 7–12 have a firm foundation before they head off to make their way in the world.

Understanding ways students learn, their learning styles, and how to manage their behavior can help a leader be more intentional about helping students experience every aspect of missions discipleship. Learn more on these topics through the following resources: 

Missions Discipleship for Students

WMU offers two options for student missions discipleship so you can meet the needs of your church. Our gender-specific missions groups are Acteens for teen girls and Challengers for teen boys. Our coed group is Youth on Mission.

Through missions discipleship, students engage in growth experiences that help them develop the four characteristics of a missional disciple:

  • Learn about missions
  • Pray for missions
  • Support missions
  • Do missions and tell about Jesus
