Delegate Mix Is Explained
Checking the delegate list to the Union Session coming February 15-17 some may wonder about the mix of representatives. The answer is logical.
Whereas the business of the local conference is directly responsible to the laity within that conference, work of the Union is largely responsible to the local conferences. That is, Union conference staff are largely at the service of local conference leadership and clergy.
Thus, while laypersons predominate at a local session, pastors from throughout these five states have a larger voice in a business meeting which covers the wider area. Moreover, while local congregations choose delegates to a local conference session, that local conference executive committee is the body which names delegates to the Unionwide session.
Plans Made Known for 23rd Union Session
More than 600 delegates from throughout the Pacific Union Conference have been named to the quinquennial constituency meeting set for Riverside, California, February 15-17.
INSPIRATION 5R4S
“For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.”
Romans 12:4-8
In addition, Pacific Union officers and staff are accountable to the Union Executive Committee and local conference counterparts.
Suggestions which you have may be channeled through one of your lay delegates or a pastor—or, of course, by way of your local conference administrator.
Check your conference page for the names of your delegation.
Student Observers Are Invited to Union Session
Nearly 100 student observers from 16 of the 21 senior academies in California, Thunderbird Adventist Academy, and Hawaiian Mission Academy as well as Reno Junior Academy accepted the invitation to attend the Pacific Union Conference Session.
In addition to observing the workings of the Church, the student delegates will also form a choir and orchestra to perform at the Monday night challenge extravaganza. Special orientation panels and consortiums will give students opportunity to ask questions about church management and arrangement from the local congregation to world headquarters.
Moving ahead of the “observer” idea, Northern California chose a Rio Lindo Academy student to serve as a regular delegate. In fact, Northern added several categories of delegates to this Session: retirees, secretaries, institutional workers, women—to name a few besides students. Stewart Harty is Rio Lindo’s representative, while Randy Wylie, senior theology major, Pacific Union College, will represent the college age.
We're Glad You Hiked . . .
Named by the local conference committees on the basis of each president and a general delegate plus one for every 300 members, delegates will elect officers to serve the Pacific Union, Pacific Union College, and the Hawaiian Mission during the next five years. Departmental leaders will also be named for the Union.
Two major committees to be selected by the delegation will be the Union Executive Committee and the Pacific Union College Board of Trustees. Departmental leaders and the Executive Com-
Young Koreans Complete “Faith” Course
Young Koreans completing the 24-lesson Bible course, “You Take the Wheel,” received graduation certificates January 10 during a special ceremony held by the Valley Korean Adventist group at the Northridge Church.
These young folk studied for four months with Charles Chong Wan Cho, instructor in the Faith For Today Bible correspondence school, who organized the class as an after-working-hours project.
Meetings were held every Monday evening in which Elder Cho conducted the Bible lesson in English and then showed a Faith For Today film to the 15 students in the class. They ranged in ages from 10 to 13.
Elder Cho attracted several of his students through a newspaper advertisement in the Korean

Workshop for Parents Is Slated for Las Vegas
A Compleat Parent Workshop will begin Thursday, February 19, at 7 p.m., at the Las Vegas Junior Academy, 6059 West Oakey Blvd.
This “school for parents” explores the essential areas of child raising and provides practical solutions to common problems. Instructing the workshop will be Harry and Nancy Van Pelt, well known and popular family specialists who have conducted more than 200 such seminars across North America.
This 12-hour workshop includes the following topics: how to build self-respect—key to your child’s future; how to talk so your child will listen to you and how to listen so your child will talk to you; the how, when and why of effective discipline; how to build responsibility and get your child to pick up his room, stop whining and study; how to improve parentteenager relationships; sex education for parents; and methods for controlling sibling rivalry.
The Van Pelts are husband-wife professionals who team-teach the course. Together the Van Pelts are founders and directors of BETTER LIVING PROGRAMS, INC., a nonprofit organization whose only reason for existence is to contribute to the stability of the home.
Nancy is the author of The Compleat Parent, the book on which the class is based. She recently appeared with Dr. James Dobson, renowned psychologist and author of such best-selling books as Dare To Discipline. In addition to The Compleat Parent, Nancy has also authored a companion volume, The Compleat Marriage.
The course is endorsed by educators, psychologists and professionals to be the most practical, thorough and helpful program for parents in existence today. Couples planning for parenthood, grandparents, teachers and educators are also urged to attend.

Youth Make Christmas Merrier for Grown-ups
While grown-ups throughout the Salt Lake Valley were busy finding ways of making Christmas merry for children, young people from Salt Lake Junior Academy were busy making Christmas a little merrier for the grown-ups at the Olympus Care Center! They were participating in the school’s Adopt-a-Grandparent Program.
The program was started last year when Miss Sylvia Green, teacher of grades 4 through 6, arranged for her students to visit local nursing homes. Every Thursday the youngsters visit the Olympus Care Center to spend time with their adopted grandparents; and because they do visit on a regular basis, a real bond has developed between them.
Jan Thompson, Deseret News staff writer, in an excellent article (complete with pictures) for the Deseret News of December 23-24, described the obvious happiness of both the older folk and the children as they worked together on various Christmas projects.

Valley, Utah
Alice Barlow, assistant administrator of the Care Center, is quoted as saying, “The kids are great with these folk! The residents thoroughly enjoy the interaction with the youngsters. It gets them to talk of their own children—whom they sometimes don’t see so often.” She tells of an elderly gentleman at the Center who was once so withdrawn that he wouldn’t respond to anyone. Because of the children, he now talks freely to others and shows things to them. She also mentions that some of the residents of the Center have no families of their own, and the program helps them not to be so lonesome.
LuDon DeVille, a volunteer who helps organize the program, points out that it also helps the children with their emotional needs, making them feel loved and needed too.
Sometimes the boys and girls bring fruit or flowers, put on a program, work at some little project with their adopted grandparent, or just talk; but whatever they do, visiting day is a time that both they and the grandparents enjoy.
Perhaps the remarks of Raquel Wheathington regarding her adopted grandmother, Irene Orgill, as quoted by the news article, sum up the feelings of the children:
“It’s really fun to bring Grandma gifts ’cause of the happy expression on her face! She holds my hand and hugs me. It’s really neat to have my own grandma to see every week! I have a picture of my Grandma Irene. It’s hanging by my desk at school. I love her, you know.” And the feeling is obviously mutual!
Because of Salt Lake Junior Academy’s Adopt-a-Grandparent Program, a number of grown-ups in the valley were a little less lonely and a whole lot merrier during the Christmas season just past!

“^Jedcuf, 'll Ocet	OfifiMtcuufy'
During World War H a statement in a Bournemouth, England, newspaper gave some serious thoughts. It appeared in the days when England was facing its darkest hour.
“We have preferred motor travel to churchgoing—now there is a shortage of motor fuel.
"We have ignored the ringing of church bells, calling us to worship—now the bells cannot ring except to warn us of invasion.
“We have left the church halt empty when they should have been filled with worshipers—now they are in ruins.
“We would not listen to the way of peace—now we are forced to listen to the way of war.
“The money we would not give to the Lord's work—now is taken from us in taxes and higher prices.
“The food for which we forgot to say thanks—now is unobtainable.
“The service we refused to give God—now is conscripted for our country.
“Lives we refused to live under God's control—now are under the nation's control.
"Nights we would not spend in 'watching unto prayer'—now are spent in anxious air-raid precautions."

Cantata soloists were: Patricia Giangovve, Cheryl Hoehn, Imogene Lorey and Margaret Wilson, sopranos; Doris Starkey, contralto; Ralph Castro, Victor Hoehn and Mark Martin, tenors; Tim Burland, bass; and child soloists were Kerri Robertson and Denis Rojas. Narrators were Dr. Donald Starkey, Gwen Thompson and Bea Parfitt. Glendale’s pastor is Elder Ralph Robertson, also a member of the choir.
Rene Rojas and Ruth Giomar Rojas, husband-wife professional musicians, have contributed greatly to music appreciation and divine worship at Glendale and elsewhere in the Phoenix area. The effectiveness of their Christian witnessing is reflected in the enthusiastic response of individuals of various denominations, many eager to participate in their group presentations and to acquire original compositions of Mr. Rojas.

Groveland Witnesses Investment Success
What private enterprise can do was seen recently when members of the Groveland Company turned in their Investment earnings for 1980.
The 35-member congregation raised a total of $2,725.86. This represented an average per capita of $77.86.
Ron Stout, Investment secretary, reported that E. Clarence Aaby earned $339.09 simply by picking up cans and turning them in for recycling.
The projects were begun back in January 1980, when members decided on ways in which they felt they could raise an extra gift for world missions. The projects were many and varied.
Investment funds represent extra gifts to missions on the part of the members who contribute from their earnings regularly in addition to personal projects.
Giving during the last year has been to the tune of more than $18 million by members in North America alone. Total Investment funds since the program started 55 years ago passed the 50-million-dollar mark last year.

Residents Express Appreciation for Retirement Estates
In the latter part of 1980, the Napa Valley Retirement Estates in Yountville opened its doors. Since that time, many Adventist families have found that selling their homes and moving into this lovely new retirement establishment has been well worth it.
Mrs. Lena Jones, now a resident, states the following: “Have you wondered what it would be like to move into a retirement home? I can personally state that we are so happy here, we wish the estates had opened its doors even sooner.

Rio Has Candlelight Christmas Program
On December 13 the traditional Candlelight Christmas program was presented by the music department of Rio Lindo Academy. This service is traditionally one of the highlights of the school year.
During the beginning candlelighting ceremony, the officers of the band and choir lit the candles in the windows and at the front of the chapel. Then all the seniors of the music organizations carried candles in a procession, surrounding the audience with the glowing lights.
With the perimeter of the chapel outlined by candles, the Wind Ensemble performed a number of Christmas arrangements, directed by Jim Testerman. Robert McManaman led the

“We have yet to hear a complaint about food, room care or any other facet of this organization. To the contrary, we hear many genuine compliments, especially about the nutritious, delicious meals which are prepared by our cooks and baker.
“An especially enjoyable and unifying feature is our morning worships at which time we study and pray together, sharing each other’s burdens as well as needs. This, of course, helps to tie us together as a family in a special way. We look forward to welcoming others to the wonderful new way in which we live at our ‘big house.”’

Lindaires in the cantata “Home for Christmas,” a touching variety of carols woven around a woman’s letter to home, filled with memories and expectations.
A unique part of the program was the senior piano ensemble consisting of 18 senior piano students playing on nine pianos. Mrs. Helen Brown led them in a medley of songs named “Christmas Overtures.”
At the conclusion, members of the choir carried candles back down the aisles and girls sang carols from the balcony while the audience was ushered out. The sea of excited performers and proud parents in the foyer marked a successful and memorable evening.

Family Reunion Honors 90-year-old
Thanksgiving time at the Dr. Harold Ziprick home in Loma Linda was the scene of a family reunion honoring a little lady whose 90th birthday was October 12, 1980.
Pearl Heald Gardner grew up in Michigan, married John Affeldt, a North Lansing businessman, reared four children and was very active for many years in the Lansing Church. She served as leader of several Sabbath school departments, teacher, choir director for more than 25 years and functioned on various church and school board committees, besides
Literature Evangelists Have Year-end Rally
The weekend of December 19-21 will long be remembered by the literature evangelists of the Southeastern California Conference as one of the high points of the year. It was an enthusiasic group that gathered at Pine Springs Ranch for their year-end rally and awards banquet.
E. O. Glenz, publishing director of the Pacific Union, speaking during the Sabbath service on “The Crises of the 80s,” said: “While the credentials of the Bible are being questioned in worldly institutions, in some of our own schools the authority of God’s modern-day prophet is likewise being challenged; but let no one, brethren, regardless of education, move you from this truth.”
Year-end activities were brought to a climax on Sunday during the banquet hour when awards were presented to those who had excelled in their work. Among those receiving awards were Virgilio Huerta who closed the year with a sales total of $64,548.60. Also honored were Ken Badger and Olimpo Lozano who shared honors in soul winning with both men having wit-

being active in community concert and music organizations.
The Affeldts moved to Loma Linda in June 1967 where John
was baptized shortly thereafter in the Loma Linda University Church. He and Pearl had several more happy years together—very grateful to be near some of their children and grandchildren.
Pearl still maintains her own home in Loma Linda, but she flew back to Michigan this last spring to visit her Lansing friends. She continues to love her Lord and look forward to His soon return.
nessed 12 of their customers baptized during the year.
Elder Thomas Mostert, conference president, joined in the festivities of the day in honoring the “front-line troops” of God’s great army which once again set a new sales record for the North American Division, having sold $1,425,987.60 in truth-filled literature during 1980.
Other guest speakers during the three-day rally included Everett Tetz, manager of the Home Health Education Service, and J. O. Iversen, former associate speaker for the Voice of Prophecy, now retired, who told his listeners Friday evening: “I’m glad to see the message books once more as the main thrust in
Perris Fifth Street Observes 25th Anniversary
December 27 was a joyful day for the members of the Fifth Street Church in Perris. They celebrated the 25th anniversary of their church that was built in 1955 by Elder Earl Canson who was also a well-trained carpenter. A strong group of members worked faithfully with him.
At the Bible study hour Elder H. T. Saulter from the Kansas Avenue Church in Riverside gave the study. At the 11 a.m. service Dr. David Taylor, head of the department of religion at Pacific Union College, presented the morning address.
Two former pastors of the church were present, Elder Sniper and Elder Calvin Robinson. Also, Elder C. C. Arbuthnot, first pastor of the church when it was organized in 1948, was present. Back then the members worshiped in a small barracks that had been moved on the lots they had purchased. When the congregation grew larger, it was decided to
KSGN Personnel Witness Fire Miracle
The winds in the San Bernardino Mountains were gusting from 60 to 90 miles per hour, and, although the fire lines had passed Strawberry Peak, a few hot spots remained: one nearby which the wind periodically turned into a blowtorch incinerating the road just ahead.
“Let’s run it,” said one of the men, and the other three agreed. Only 60 feet remained to their destination, and getting the generator there would mean restoring Christian radio to thousands.
It had been late that Monday, November 24, afternoon when Lee McIntyre, general manager of KSGN, an Adventist FM radio station located on the La Sierra campus of Loma Linda University, and Bruce Potterton, KSGN operation manager, had made their way through the Panorama Fire guard stations in Waterman Canyon, San Bernardino.
The drive was worth the danger.
literature evangelism.”
We thank God for the outstanding achievements witnessed during 1980. However, we believe that the greatest days in literature evangelism are just before us. The literature evangelists of Southeastern have accepted the challenge of the $2 million year!
We solicit an interest in your prayers; but, more than this, dear friends, we invite you to prayerfully consider the joy of service to be found in the literature ministry. Write to your publishing director today at P.O. Box 7805, Riverside, California 92513, for information regarding your career in the literature ministry.

build an edifice on the corner lot.
In the afternoon service the history of the church was read by Floretta Carter, and Elder Canson showed pictures of the early days of the church. Elder E. C. Rudley, the present pastor, interviewed Elder Arbuthnot about the early development of the church. Then Floretta Carter presented award plaques to Elder Arbuthnot and Elder Canson for their long, dedicated service. Certificates of appreciation were given to some charter members present: Ethel Christopher, W. Green, Lena Green, Evangeline Mack and Harvey Vivian. Certificates were also given to some members who had continuous membership for 20 years or more. Emma Nealey, the first Bible worker for the Perris Valley area, was also awarded.
A delicious meal was served by some of the ladies of the church under the direction of Cassie Graham.

There on the mountain stood their transmitter and tower—intact.
“The fire had come within ten feet of the walls, split and gone around,” said Mr. McIntyre.
With joy they had made quick arrangements for a generator and a University truck to bring emergency power to the transmitter. Now they were trying to pull the generator up the mountainside.
The University’s truck sagged from the weight of a full load of rocks needed to give the vehicle enough traction to pull the one and one-half ton Caterpillar generator on the soft dirt road. Mr. McIntyre and Craig Rawson, a volunteer assistant at KSGN, climbed into the open bed, adding their weight for traction.
Inside the cab, neither Ken Freeman, chief engineer of KSGN, nor Mr. Potterton could see the road. The truck slid and began leaning slightly—the engine stalled—they had hit the ditch.
“We had fire flying over the top of us,” said Mr. McIntyre. “I know now how a chicken feels on a skewer.” Thinking that the truck might explode, the men jumped away and waited for the area to burn out.
The area finally cooled, and the group returned to inspect the damage. They could find none. According to Mr. McIntyre, “The wind apparently kept the paint from blistering.”
The KSGN crew and the generator eventually arrived at the

transmitter that night with the help of some men working for the two other radio stations which share the transmitter building with KSGN. They worked until 3 a.m. Tuesday, only to discover that the generator was of the wrong type.
On Wednesday morning Southern California Edison Company restored power to the transmitter. But still no radio broadcast from KSGN. Somehow all of the power shifts had damaged components in the transmitter.
At 3:45 a.m. Thanksgiving Day, the station returned to the air but only after a frantic search for parts and another marathon night of installation by Mr. Freeman and Mr. Potterton.
“I said to myself that never again should we be off the air because of power,” said Mr. McIntyre.
As a result Mr. McIntyre called the board of directors on Wednesday night and asked them to approve a “Share-a-thon” for raising $15,000 for emergency generators at both the station and the transmitter.
In spite of no pre-advertising, KSGN did have a Share-a-thon. No one knew what to expect. The station had been off of the air since Sunday morning. “Was anybody even listening?”
At 6:07 a listener called in the first pledge. By midnight Friday the goal had been reached, and less than three weeks later all of the pledges had arrived—some from listeners who had never heard of KSGN before Thanksgiving Day.
“We had a real modern-day miracle,” said Lee McIntyre. “And those listeners who were praying so earnestly for our safety—they are a part of that miracle.”

Students Decorate Float—Religious Life Center To Benefit
On New Year’s Day a 105-foot blue whale glided down Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena, and Glendale Adventist Academy students cheered it along—for good reason. They had spent a combined total of 6,500 hours during their Christmas vacation decorating the float with flowers, petals and leaves.
The float, entered by AVCO Financial Services, was the largest
single float in the history of the Rose Parade. Design and construction were handled by Festival Artists of Pasadena, who arranged for the Glendale students to attach the floral covering required by Tournament of Roses Parade rules.
The float depicted a life-size blue whale, the world’s largest mammalian species, with fish, dolphins, and a baby blue whale swimming alongside. The whale was 105 feet long, 16 feet high, and 22 feet across at its widest point. Plans called for the stu-
Update . . . from the president
THANK YOU for generously sharing the gifts God gave you during 1980. By and large, you have supported generously the needs of the local congregation during this past year. You gave $18,000 for Conference evangelism, over $13,000 for worthy student aid, and more than $14,000 toward Camp Cedar Falls development.
Your Sabbath school offerings for the world mission work of the Church totaled nearly a million dollars during 1980. Tithe for 1980 showed a gain of 5.8 percent. December, being a four-week month last year compared to a five-week month in 1979, showed a loss of over $100,000.
With this modest 5.8 percent tithe gain for the year, Elder R. L. Walden is working prayerfully and diligently to be able to plan a budget for 1981 that will not require us to reduce our number of ministers drastically. We appreciate your prayers that the Lord will bless and multiply the resources He has impressed His people to put into the gospel work that they will be increased and accomplish great good in Southern California.
THE JEWISH WORK in Southern California is a new venture of faith. We thank those of you who have made special contributions toward this work. Elder Don Lewis, the Jewish evangelist, will arrive in our Conference within the next few days. We are developing a special fund to provide literature, Bible lessons and evangelistic meetings to help evangelize this vital segment of over a half million persons in the Southern California Conference. Thank you for your prayers and your help.
THE IT IS WRITTEN TELESEMINAR will originate in Los Angeles March 1 and will be televised via satellite to the major cities of North America.

dents to attach 275,000 carnation petals, 15,500 wedgewood iris blossoms, plus large quantities of corn silk, mums, roses and other flowers.
The 250 Glendale students involved in the project worked in four-to-eight-hour shifts at the Azusa Pavilion, where many of the parade floats were readied for the event. They were assisted by members of Job’s Daughters of La Canada-Flintridge.
Floral work on the float began at 8 a.m. December 26 and continued every day until parade time. The schedule was grueling— 8 a.m. until at least 10:30 p.m. every day except Friday and Saturday. Crews worked around the clock from Tuesday morning until the Wednesday afternoon float-judging time. An emergency patch crew was on call until the float actually started down the parade route.
For their efforts the student body received $1,400. The students decided to apply it toward completion of the new Religious

Life Center being constructed on the academy campus.
“The students were sky-high to be part of the Rose Parade,’’ says Calvin Knipschild, faculty sponsor of the project, “and they’re really interested in helping the school building fund.’’
Other faculty members assisting heavily in the project were Eust-quio Ines and Martha Diaz. The Conference assisted the students in their fund-raising project by providing transportation from the academy to the Azusa Pavilion. Casey Bahr, youth pastor of the Glendale Church, arranged for a hot entree to be served for each work shift.
Students working on the float were interviewed on television and appeared on a local newscast. They also received T-shirts with the AVCO whale silk-screened on the back in appreciation for their work. The builders and sponsoring companies were so impressed with the students that 15 companies want them to decorate their floats next year!

"Perfect Peace" Wins First Soul
“Perfect Peace,” a five-minute inspirational radio broadcast aired Monday through Friday at 5;55 p.m. on KSFG — 96 FM, won its first soul for Christ on Friday night, December 26. Mrs. Irma Hunt, one of the program’s faithful listeners, accepted the Adventist message and was baptized into the Maranatha church.
Born into a New Jersey family with six children, Irma was reared in an atmosphere of mixed religious influences. At the direction of her father, Irma was baptized into the Catholic Church at the age of 12, but it was her mother’s Pentecostal influence that she felt the most as she grew up — though she practiced neither religion.
Blessed with a talent to write, Irma came to California in August 1979, seeking to become a television script writer. Some of her work was accepted for the CBS comedy “The Jeffersons.”
Still, a void remained in Irma’s
life, and she began going from church to church in search of truth. The search had gone on for some time when, one evening about four months ago as she was listening to the religious music played on KSFG, she heard, for the first time, “Perfect Peace,’’ hosted by Shirley Maxwell.
The program touched something deep in her heart. When asked for her first impressions on that evening, she replied, “I always had a love for Jesus Christ, and listening to Shirley and her love for Jesus—well, it hit home.’’
Irma immediately wrote “Perfect Peace’’ and enclosed her phone number. Soon afterward Irma received a call from Shirley and was invited to her home for Bible studies. She accepted, and in the following weeks Irma, along with another “Perfect Peace’’ listener, was introduced to Jesus Christ and the Adventist message.

Perfect Peace Wins Souls
(Continued from page 6/
“The Seventh-day Adventist message is truth — Scriptural truth!’’ Irma said. “I had a natural, confident feeling that I had found what I was looking for—this is it!’’
Believing that the Lord had led her, Irma was baptized on December 26 at the Maranatha church as part of the church’s annual “Agape Feast’’ held on the last Friday night of each year.
“Perfect Peace’’ is a personal ministry of Mrs. Shirley Maxwell, a layperson and member of the Maranatha church, who began the project more than six months ago. Today, a staff of 12 assists her in the duties of answering correspondence distributing cassette recordings of the broadcasts, coordinating Bible studies by mail, publishing monthly newsletters, and bookkeeping.
It was with great joy that the “Perfect Peace’’ staff, contributors, and the Maranatha church watched Irma step forward in baptism. They praise God for the great things He has done. Randyle K. Maxwell, Comm. Secy. Maranatha Church

Organizing Committee. That group, in the Church’s democratic process, will name the Nominating Committee—and any other committee needed—which will be chaired by Charles E. Bradford, president of the North American Division.
Other Division delegates at large include J. W. Bothe, NAD secretary, and Jose Espinosa, director of North American Missions. President Neal C. Wilson and Treasurer L. L. Butler will represent the General Conference.
While the Nominating Committee is doing its work, the rest of the delegation will be considering the Mission of the Church in the 80s. “Though a Union Conference Constituency is not the forum for discussing Church doctrine, challenges to its Mission is,” according to President Walter D. Blehm.
Prelude to discussion of that Mission for the 80s are four major presentations: “Ministry for the 80s” by Des Cummings, Jr., Andrews University; “The Church in the 80s,” Larry Richards from Pacific Union College; “Preaching in the 80s” and “Inspiration and E. G. White in the 80s” by Hans LaRondelle, Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary.
Panels of Union departmental personnel, pastors, and lay-member respondents will conclude each section.
Two-hour consortium topics designed with both pastors and laymen in mind are “Developing a Sermonic Year,” “Getting the Best Mileage out of the Church Bulletin and the Church Newsletter,” “A Strategy for Decisions,” “How To Handle Grief,” “Intermediate Views between Evolution and Creationism,” “Christ in the Psalms,” “Church Growth

and Recent Statistics,” and “Why a Pre-advent Judgment?”
“In this day of changing dynamics,” President Blehm says, “we must recognize a consequent changing society. The challenge to the Church is that we must move and mature together.
“And while we move together,” Elder Blehm emphasizes, “we must not lose our individual identities for the common bond of challenge binds us together in our Mission for the entire decade.”
Charlotte is in charge of patient business, and Corina is secretary to the administrator. We welcome these ladies to Monument Valley.

Director of Mormon Tabernacle Choir To Lead Choral Workshop
The music department of Pacific Union College is hosting more than 500 academy students for a choral workshop February 5-7. The workshop will be under the leadership of Dr. Jerold Ott-ley, director of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
Twelve academies from the Northern and Central California conferences will participate.
Each academy director and choir will have the opportunity to work separately with Dr. Ottley. He will also direct a mass choir composed of all the vocalists.
Dr. Ottley, a native of Utah, is the 13th conductor of the Tabernacle Choir. His appointment to this oosition and the choosinc of

his staff marked a first in the choir’s history. When he was appointed as conductor in 1975, it was the first time the entire music staff was comprised of Mormon-born musicians who had earned doctorate degrees in music.
During the choral festival the students will have two days of intensive sectional and combined rehearsals. The sectional rehearsals will be led by James Kemps-ter, James Mercer and Karen Carle, all instructors in the music department at Pacific Union College. Gayle Hall, a former music instructor whose husband is currently teaching music at the college, will also lead a sectional rehearsal.
The workshop will culminate in a series of performances. Friday evening, February 6, each academy will present a number performed by its choir. The next morning Dr. Ottley will conduct the mass choir in performing the anthems for the church service.
“Second-Step" Program To Begin in September
Pacific Union College will be offering the “Second-Step” of a four-year nursing degree for both undergraduates and graduates with a two-year degree or three-year hospital diploma, beginning in September 1981.
The program came in response to numerous requests made by both students and graduates of the nursing program and was approved without question by the Adventist Board of Higher Education in January, according to Ellen Gibson, chairman of the PUC nursing department.
The program, called the “Second-Step,” is different from the traditional four-year nursing program, says Miss Gibson. The associate degree nursing program is composed of both general education and basic nursing requirements. The “Second-Step” will build upon and add to that foundation. There are many “Second-Step” programs across the nation.
Because a graduate of the new program will receive a bachelor of science degree, 80 to 96 additional hours of college credit will be required. The final year of this program is of a clinical nature, said Miss Gibson, so students will complete their course work at the White Memorial Medical Center in Los Angeles. Dr. Lenoa K. Jones will direct the program at the White. Provisions have

Saturday evening at 5 the choir will perform a combination of sacred and secular songs in Pacific Auditorium. Dr. Ottley has chosen the music for this concert, and among the songs are selections he has recorded with the Tabernacle Choir.
“The festival encourages fellowship in choral singing,” said James Kempster, coordinator of the event. “This is done by combining the singers from all the schools under one capable conductor—a conductor whose specialty is fostering the love of choral singing as giving glory to God.”
The participating academies include Pacific Union College Preparatory, Redwood Academy, Rio Lindo Academy, Golden Gate Academy, Sacramento Academy, Lodi Academy, Mountain View Academy, Monterey Bay Academy, Modesto Academy, Paradise Academy, Fresno Academy and Armona Academy.
already been made for additional staff members and for dormitory housing for the students.
There are some basic differences in instruction and job opportunities between two- and four-year nurses. According to Miss Gibson, the associate degree graduate has a basic foundation in most areas of hospital care, but not as in-depth a foundation as the four-year degree holder has.
As for job opportunities, Miss Gibson emphasized that there is always a place for each—both are needed. However, she stated that four-year nurses have the opportunity to be more independent, as they have more leadership, supervising and community health skills.
When the new program begins in the fall, Miss Gibson expects a 30-person limit to be placed on enrollment, but she added that the number may be increased.
“As the new program is launched, we want to maintain our traditional high academic standards, as well as provide excellent practitioners for the health-care service agencies in our church,” concludes Miss Gibson.
Currently there are between 160 and 180 nursing students attending PUC’s associate degree program. A high level of interest in both the associate degree and the “Second-Step” program has been shown by prospective students.

And if there were, they might be but other signs of the times in which we live. Strife and contention are indications of a nearness of the second advent. Jesus did not promise they would not be in the Church. He did tell us how to act or react with people of differing beliefs: “Treat others as you would like them to treat you.” Matt. 7:12 and Luke 6:31, NEB.

What the current controversy should be doing, indeed, seems to be doing, is driving us each one to our knees and to our Bibles rather than from the Church and organization.
