What do we do about Recognition services?
MissionsQuest recognition services will be encouraged to celebrate what God has done in and through Acteens as they have participated in MissionsQuest.

Can we use MissionsQuest in churches that do not have Acteens?
For the church that doesn't have an Acteens program, MissionsQuest provides an excellent opportunity for girls to develop a heart for missions and ministry through the activities suggested. MissionsQuest offers a holistic approach to spiritual development specifically for teenage girls. Participation in MissionsQuest is one way to be an Acteen even though there may not be an organized group in a church.

How does MissionsQuest compare to StudiAct?
MissionsQuest is an individual achievement plan like StudiAct, but it has a greater focus on hands-on ministry. MissionsQuest leads girls to examine four areas important for growth in a missions lifestyle: self, church, community, and world. Like StudiAct, MissionsQuest is written with girls in grades 7-12 in mind, but the Quests do not build upon one another as was true for the levels in StudiAct. For example, a tenth grader who is beginning MissionsQuest for the first time would not start at the Quest for Confidence with the seventh graders, but at the Quest for Character with the other tenth graders.
