In the summer of 2027, the youth choir and ringers from Church of the Saviour United Methodist in Cincinnati, Ohio, offer an inspirational message of hope and resilience through music and testimony. Mission Tour 2027 takes this group to America’s heartland traveling to Indiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee. The junior high and senior high students who volunteer their time to participate in these choirs are committed to sharing their faith through work at mission sites and celebrating worship through music. Based on Matthew 5:16, this year’s program is entitled Radiant and encourages listeners to “let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father."
