MISSIONS OF EIGHTH DAYMission groups are the center of life in the Eighth Day Faith Community. Many of these groups have given birth to missions that are now non-profit agencies. Here is a partial list of the groups and/or agencies. |

 |
Membership in Eighth Day is based on commitment to Christ and response to God's call to deepen the inward journey and to serve God through actively participating in a mission group. Mission groups are the structure we have found most helpful in supporting God's individual and corporate call. Mission groups consist of at least two members who have responded to a particular call to ministry. Mission groups meet weekly to support one another in spiritual growth and outward mission. The calls of current mission groups include: |
