Every year, in partnership with Group Publishing, Lutheran Hour Ministries takes grade school- through middle school-aged children, and even some adults, on a week-long adventure. Gospel Adventures: Go Mongolia!, an informative and interactive virtual learning experience, is complete with five days of FREE curriculum in two formats and bonus materials.
Gospel Adventures gives kids an inside look into the day-to-day lives of people like them around the world through music, videos, and fun characters. The curriculum includes videos, maps, colorful graphics and charts, hands-on activities, questions for discussion, and more, all working together to highlight Mongolia’s religion, ethnic groups, ways of living, culture and customs, history, and other features that make Mongolia unique. Students are introduced to kids just like them living in another country who carry their faith with them through day-to-day life. They learn about the foods, animals, people, and places of Mongolia with Gospel Adventures.
Although many parents and teachers choose to take part in Gospel Adventures during National Lutheran Schools Week (NLSW) in January, the curriculum is flexible and can be incorporated into your schedule whenever is best for you. There is still time to register and complete this year’s adventure as a group at school or at home. Visit gospeladventures.org to sign up now!

Bonus materials include a middle school workbook to accompany the online experience, a printable coin bank template, coloring pages of maps, and more.
