Micah Singapore organised The Micah-thon - our first-ever integral missions 'hackathon'.
​
Over a weekend, young people came together to tackle real-life challenges issued by local churches/ministries, in a way that integrates our faith and social action, and in consultation with local leaders/practitioners.
​
At the Micah-thon, participants got to:
-
Find out about the state of integral missions and the broader Kingdom landscape in Singapore
-
Take on real-life challenges in integral missions faced by churches/ministries in Singapore
-
Ideate with like-minded Christians in small teams of 4-5
-
Consult directly with leaders/practitioners
