Missouri Missions Offering

Lexie Cook

Several students served Missouri Baptists this summer as student summer interns at the Missouri Baptist Convention office at Jefferson City. During the course of the internship they had the opportunity to participate in many ministry opportunities including Super Summer. They also got to work side-by-side with MBC specialists and to learn about the ministries of the Missouri Baptist Convention.

Here’s what they had to say about the experience…

“‘In various ways, and among all kinds of people, Jesus called men to evaluate the product of their lives. This was the revelation of what they were.’ This quote from Dr. Robert Coleman, is in essence what the internship with the Student Ministry Team was for me. It was living life among people to help me to evaluate my life thus far and to discover the importance that evangelism has to God and how if we want to be a part of what God is doing we have to be filling our souls with who God is and letting it ooze out of our very being.”—Lexie Cook

“It was such an honor and a joy to come live life and work with the Student Ministry Team. It was an incredible time of discipleship and growth, and I am so grateful for all that God has taught me this summer!”—Tabitha Burge

“I have done the internship two different summers and both times God has rocked my world. Interning with the Student Ministry Team allowed me to experience ten weeks of intense discipleship, community, and growth. My life will forever be changed.”—Chelsea Watkins

In 2011, Collegiate Summer Missions will receive $110,000 from the Missouri Missions Offering. Without your gifts through the Missouri Missions Offering, students like these would not have the opportunity to have this experience.
