LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- The 2001 edition of the Mission Yearbook for Prayer and
Study is now available.

	Used by thousands of Presbyterians daily, the Mission Yearbook for Prayer
and Study includes stories and photographs of Presbyterians in mission in
the United States and overseas; minutes for mission on Lord's Day pages that

lists of presbytery, synod, General Assembly and mission staff members, as
well as General Assembly Council members and Presbyterian partner churches;

theological institutions related to the PC(USA); synod and presbytery maps;
and demographic profiles to help readers learn about the countries where the
PC(USA) is in mission.
