Storyboard: Faith Witness Transformation is a podcast highlighting ministries across the East Ohio Conference of The United Methodist Church that are transforming lives locally, nationally, and globally. Produced twice-a-month by EOC Communications, each podcast episode focuses on one of the core values of the #BeUMC campaign: Disciple Making; Belonging & Inclusion; Influence, Connection & Impact; and Experience of God through The United Methodist Church.

Episode 59 “Making Disciples through Discover … Missions” features a roundtable discussion about faith-building opportunities through United Methodist Volunteers in Mission (UMVIM) Discover … Missions.

“Discover … Mission is set up as an intentional cultural immersion for young people to serve with and learn from young adults in the host country,” offered the Rev. Dr. Tammy Kuntz, North Central Jurisdiction UMVIM coordinator.

“When you talk about relationship building it may be through music, it may be through a faith-based service. Relationship building is hard to put a frame around, it means different things for different people, and different experiences make that picture look a little bit different,” said Jody Pratt, Michigan Conference VIM coordinator.

A Discover … Mission trip leaves for Peru December 30.
