Monday, November 15, 1976 / Volume 76, Number 20 / Angwin, California / Official Organ of the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Week of Sacrifice—Do We Really Need One? Editor's Note: We regret this article did not reach editorial offices preceding the Sacrifice Sabbath. However, it contains such a practical message that we wish to share it even now—for those of us who wish to set our own sacrifice week before the end of the year. Why should I sacrifice? How can I sacrifice? For whom should I sacrifice? For many years Seventhday Adventist Christians have been called upon to participate in a Week of Sacrifice at the conclusion of the annual fall Week of Prayer. Is sacrificing outdated for God’s people? Let us look at the questions again: Why Should I Sacrifice? “Whatever the appearance may be, every life centered in self is squandered. Whoever attempts to live apart from MORE GENERAL NEWS ON PAGES 7 & 8 Oakwood College Enrollment at Oakwood College has reached an all-time high of 1,137, 122 (12 per cent) more than last year. The sharp increase has put pressure on most of the college’s facilities which have not kept pace with the steadily growing enrollment. According to Mervyn Warren, dean of the college, beds were unavailable in the dormitories and had to be ordered for about 100 students. The problem of housing led to the conversion of a classroom, a recreation room and lounge, a utility area, and two former faculty homes into sleeping quarters for students. It also meant the relocation of office space, and that students had to temporarily sleep on the floors. Classroom space has also felt the crunch. This will be relieved somewhat when the religion department transfers to the new Religious Education Center. "Intellect alone does not make the man, according to the divine standard. There is a power in intellect if sanctified and controlled by the Spirit of God. It is superior to riches and to physical power, yet it must be cultivated in order to make the man. The right which one has to claim to be a man is determined by the use made of his intellect." 4 Testimonies, 518 God is wasting his substance. He is squandering the precious years, squandering the powers of mind and heart and soul, and working to make himself bankrupt for eternity. The man who separates from God that he may serve himself is the slave of mammon.” Christ’s Object Lessons, 200, 201 The greatest struggles a person must meet are self-serving interests and desires. Human nature clamors for attention. The satisfying of personal ego causes many to trample fellow human beings underfoot. It has been Satan’s studied effort to cause the human race to focus their every effort on satifying personal goals and comforts. Jesus came to point out the “better way.” He came to show that love is shown by unselfish acts of sacrifice. Evil can be overcome only by forgetting self and focusing on others. When the cross is clearly seen there comes through the positive message of true satisfaction by giving and not merely receiving. Surely it is “more The Gym can handle only about two-thirds of the enrollment for physcial education and the tennis courts are not adequate for meeting the increased demands. Dining facilities are notably cramped despite the introduction of the scramble system and the package plan. These facilities, built to accommodate around 800, are hard pressed under the strain of over 1,100 students. IS GOD ON VACATION? Read about it in the November issue of Signs. blessed to give than to receive.” In the providence of heaven we learn to truly understand the Father as we learn the joy of sacrificing. Every Christian will know that experience as he, too, sacrifices. There is not a Christian experience without sacrifice. I must sacrifice then to know Him who is life eternal. How Can I Sacrifice? One learns to give when one learns to love. Love is giving and sharing. Love is uniting and thrilling in that spirit of oneness. The love that prompts a mother to give her life for her child is not considered by her to be sacrifice. The husband who brings home an expensive anniversary gift does not remind his wife of his great sacrifice. The gift of love is an expression of genuine affection. The Saviour taught that the only gift acceptable to the God of heaven is the sacrifice of loving obedience. Any other gift is offensive to Him. He is not interested in the gift; His concern is for the giver. The gift is but the token of lasting, genuine devotion. The young lover who bring his gift only to buy concessions from his girlfriend is turned (Continued on page 8) MOST OF THESE 15 were Bible instructors present at a recent workers7 retreat held for the Black ministers and Bible instructors in the Pacific Union with Earl Canson, director of the Regional Department. Mary Walsh, a veteran Bible instructor in the Union and now in Southern California Conference, gave valuable instruction to these ladies during the four days they were together at the retreat. Vivian Boyce was elected president of the group, and Maude-Esther Masters was chosen secretary. The Bible instructors in each local conference will have officers also. The Northern California group selected Virginia Findley as their president and Mildred Dossman as secretary. What Should I Do? Lots of people are saying it . . . Pastors Nominating Committees Present Youth Leaders "Asked-To-Help" Youth Leaders in local churches throughout the Pacific Union. When your local church considers its 1977 Youth Ministry needs, here's a "Quickie" Youth Ministry scoop sheet to help in planning: YOUTH MINISTRY By action of the 1975 Fall Council a revolutionary new thrust for the North IS: American Division replacing what was previously known as the "MV Society" structure. The resolution says that every church (large or small, few kids or lots) provide a Youth Leader to coordinate ministry to (and with) youth ages 14-30. THE YOUTH Is a responsible person (need not be "young") who "coaches" youth in LEADER: planning (by the youth, for the youth) activities that promote individual and group growth in five areas: Bible Study, Social Fellowship, Witnessing, Service to Community Needs, and Fellowship (creating a redemptive climate where one can feel free to fail in order to learn to grow). These activities are coordinated with youth Sabbath school and other church departmental activities and are promoted, conducted, and reported through youth gatherings, either public or informal. In some churches, the individual leading this process may also be the youth Sabbath school division leader. In larger churches, there may be two, or more, youth leaders. THE YOUTH Is youth (not adult "committee") in counsel together as they plan (with lead-COUNCIL: ership help) their youth program which fits their needs.

Elder Harry Garlick of the Pacific Union Conference Youth Department was the featured guest speaker for the weekend. events were first by areas. The nine area winners participated in Conference finals, interspersed by the rocket-launching countdown by Pastor Dick Matthews of Corning. The Camporee finale was a peanut drop at 12:30 p.m., at which “special” peanuts were hunted which yielded free weeks at camp, plus other prizes. All went home tired, yet happy; dusty, yet refreshed. The Lord blessed with beautiful weather and a Christian spirit among all. Several were overheard to say, “It was the best Camporee I’ve ever been to!” Ron Stretter, Assoc. Director Youth Department All 1,500 Pathfinders gather under and around an oak tree for church service. The program began Friday evening with a campfire. There were general assemblies for flag raising and lowering each morning and evening. Terry Roth of Napa provided the live bugle calls. Sabbath school was held by area, with each of the nine area coordinators in charge of his group. Everyone assembled under a large oak tree for the Sabbath morning worship service. Elder Garlick presented new insights into the experiences of the “Prodigal Son and His Brother.” For a while on Sabbath afternoon Pathfinders were given time to explore the 840 acres of Leoni Meadows. They reassembled for vespers, and Pastor Tim Mustard challenged everyone’s knowledge of Scripture with a Bible quiz. Vespers concluded with the baptism of Joyce Aitkin of Lodi. At Saturday night’s campfire, Chuck Haenny directed the music. Frank Draeger shared a thrilling experience with baby rattlesnakes, and Dale Galusha and Greg Cater presented a skit. A marshmallow roast concluded the program. The four Sunday morning Four-Night Cooking School Held About 35 persons attended the four-night cooking school at the Beacon Light church in Richmond which began October 10. Instructor Charles G. Ed- wards, Northern’s health services director, was assisted by his wife June, his secretary, Claudia Randolph, and many ladies of the Beacon Light Church. On arrival each evening, each person was given a dinner plate containing samples of the foods to be demonstrated at that evening’s class. A nutrition lecture was given with each demonstration. At the close of each class a drawing for the many free food samples was held. Beacon Light Pastor Roy Fernander says this long-awaited community service program has helped to strengthen the work in the Richmond area. Charles G. Edwards, Director Health Services Colfax Sends Clothing to Monument Valley Mission Colfax’s Community Services collected and prepared 142 boxes of clothing and bedding items which were taken to the Monument Valley Navajo Indians during the recent National Indian Awareness Week. The contents of the boxes included 3,000 items of clothing, many blankets and 50 gross (7,200) disposable baby diapers for hospital use. Mr. and Mrs. James DeJersey, Community Services leaders, were assisted by Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Seeberg in loading the truckful of supplies for Monument Valley Mission in Utah. “We will continue to collect for needy persons,” said Mrs. DeJersey, “especially as the new Colfax Community Services Center adjacent to the church will soon be open for use.” Eva Santee, Comm.

Publishing Workshop LEs Meet at Conference Office Thirty Central California literature evangelists and their wives met October 17 at the Conference office for a workshop. The session’s purpose .was to help literature evangelists learn how to close more sales and, therefore, get the printed page in more homes of judgment-bound souls. The publishing program is moving forward in Central. Sales for the first 10 months of 1976 are $334,209, a 20 per cent increase over 1975, according to Publishing Director Larry Townsend.

He constantly seeks higher attainments and better methods.” (Counsels on Sabbath School Work, 103) “Let every teacher feel that he must know more; he must be better acquainted with those with whom he has to deal, better acquainted with the best methods of imparting knowledge; and when he has done the best he can, that he has come far short.” (Ibid., 99) suited from the publishing work. Many more full-time literature evangelists are needed to complete the spreading of the gospel. Needing a full-time literature evangelist are the following areas: Redwood City, Palo Alto, Santa Clara, Campbell, Santa Cruz, Monterey, Santa Maria, Bakersfield, and Merced. Perhaps God would like you to fill one of these vacancies. For information write Larry Townsend, Publishing Director, Box 580, San Jose, CA 95106. New Elders Serve Conference For John and Rosemary Collins and Connley and Jeanne Hartman, last summer’s camp meeting at Soquel will always be a very special event.

Trained and experienced men and women will deal with five areas of instruction: Early Childhood, Childhood, Youth, Adult and Administration. “Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants. We are stuffing their heads with the products of earlier innovation rather than teaching them how to innovate.

The church fellowship hall is located at 16th and G streets in Modesto. Booth at Caruthers Fair Draws Five-Day Interest From Caruthers comes a fair story from Pastor Lloyd Stephens: “October 21-23 was fair time in Caruthers, and the Caruthers Church sponsored a booth featuring Community Services work and the Five-Day Plan to Stop Smoking. The American Cancer Society loaned displays showing lungs afflicted with cancer and emphysema. Many persons lingered over these displays and the wheelbarrow full of wooden cigarettes—representing a year’s consumption at the rate of one pack a day. “The Conference’s Health on Wheels mobile unit was parked nearby, drawing many people to the health services inside. Interests at the Caruthers Fair signed up for a Five-Day Plan to be held in the area soon.” PACIFIC UNION RECORDER / MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1976 3 to be used.

BREATH OF LIFE CRUSADE—This three-week series in Lynwood opened with a "full house" of 2,000 people. Lynwood Mayor James E. Rowe (extreme left) spoke briefly opening night. He has returned several times since as a spectator. Loretta Davis was at the piano the first Sunday night and Walter Arties sang a solo just before the sermon. Final visitation is in high gear as everyone looks expectantly toward big rewards. Elder Franklin W. Hudgins, who introduced her, said, “She has made an outstanding contribution toward the progress of the community through her work as a newspaperwoman.” She was given a specially designed plaque by Elder P. Ba-naag, on which her name was inscribed—a memento for her of the occasion. Her professional career began with the Pomona Progress. She next was women’s editor and feature writer for the Glendale News Press. In 1951 she began work with the Glendale Independent now known as the Glendale Ledger.

As ASHPR Director CHEER GROUP HONORED—The Sunshiners Club from the Wilmington Church received a "Recognition Award" at a ceremony held in the Los Palos Hospital in San Pedro a few weeks ago. Appreciation for the club's voluntary services to patients was extended to the juniors and their leader, Mrs. E. Fauni. The club has "adopted" seven patients. During frequent hospital visitations the young people sing to cheer the patients up, give them flowers, provide inspirational magazines and pray with them. During special programs (Independence Day and on birthdays) the club contributes musical numbers and the church pastor gives an inspirational talk.

At least three alcoholics, plus many friends and relatives of alcoholics were there. Films, lectures, and a discussion period rounded out the approach. Weekly, follow-up get-togethers, conducted by Pastor Tom Stafford, totaled eight. The meetings were part of a Drug Dependency Training session held during the 1976 Temperance Advisory Council. HANDEL'S MESSIAH—The Robert Herr Chorale and Orchestra will present Handel's Messiah at the Vallejo Drive church Friday, December 17, 7:30 p.m. The free concert is the only Los Angeles performance of the Messiah by a completely professional group to be scheduled this Christmas, so far. MANY MORE WILL FOLLOW-Some 43 souls were baptized in Huntington Park as a result of an effort conducted there by Evangelist Isaac Lara and his associate, Ralph Urduno. Success of the effort was primarily due to the laity of the church receiving training from their local pastor, Abel Lopez, in Bible study and home visitation. Baptisms so far this year at the church total 70 souls. SAM SALTAR SPEAKS AT VALLEJO DRIVE-One of the most talked-about Christian conversions of recent years was shared with the Vallejo Drive congregation September 25.

He is a third generation Adventist minister and pastors a church in Tula, about 125 miles from Moscow. He also serves as a coordinator of Adventist churches in that part of the U.S.S.R. Elder Kulakov reported on the growth of gospel work in that country as a result of the religious freedom they have. At present we have about 100 congregations with a membership of 30,000. While in southern California he visited the Radio and Television Center and spoke at The Voice of Prophecy and Southern California Conference office worship services. He also had the opportunity of spending several hours at Disneyland, a place about which he had heard much. The Kulakovs have six children. Just before coming to the Annual Council, his two oldest sons informed him that they too had decided to be ministers. Farewells are always sad occasions, especially when they come at the beginning of a school year. Rosa Cardenas came from Mexico to attend the Calexico Mission School and was studying to be a secretary. Because of the recent peso devaluation she lacks the funds to pay her tuition. As a result she had to say a tearful goodbye to her many friends among the students and teachers at the school. With two devaluations of the peso, the equivalent cost of tuition rose from $55 a month to $114.40! Due to the devaluation, the projected enrollment of Calexico Mission School for the 1976-77 school year was down at the first of September by 50 students.

Country Fair Held to Raise Money for Supplies Oasis Palms Elementary School made a name for itself Sunday, October 24, as the Home and School Association held its first annual, old-fashioned Country Fair. Lasting all day, the event drew many desert dwellers and folk from as far away as Redlands. Ruth Berglund, from the Conference office, was on hand with her "Smoking Sally” to demonstrate the effects of smoking.

This is a critical year at our mission school on the border; your continued support is very much needed! Many of the students truly love Calexico Mission School and are sad at the possibility of not being able to continue studying. Your offering November 27 can help these many students meet this crisis time and continue their preparation for a life work at Calexico Mission School. We are counting on you, for you are our best supporters. M. L. Fehrenbach, Principal Calexico Mission School found. Many musicians shared their talents. Jack Bobst, DDS, and his wife Pam joined in an accordion-piano duet. The school choir presented a medley of old time standards, and students sang solos and duets. Students took an active part in their school fair, selling advance tickets, making publicity posters and working as salespersons in the different booths. Eighty Pathfinders from Redlands also joined in the fun on their way back from a Lake Chauailla outing. They gulped treats and explored the exciting adventure of the maze designed by Richard Bobst, teacher of the third and fourth grades.

The husband who buys the expensive gift merely to wring out unfair advantage from his wife has not discovered the joys of homemaking. The Christian who learns that sacrifice is willingness to relinquish the entire life to God without any reservation has then discovered the real experience of Christianity. For Whom Should I Sacrifice? The Master answered the question when He said: “... Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” Matt. 25:40 KJV We sacrifice for God when we give to carry on His work. The means which have been entrusted to God’s people all come from the goodness of heaven. The use we make of these treasures reflect our commitment to God. If used to bless others we receive blessings in return. If used for selfish pleasures, the treasure becomes a curse. We have been told: “God’s people are called to a work that requires money and consecration. The obligations resting upon us hold us responsible to work for God to the utmost of our ability. He calls for undivided service, for the entire devotion of heart, soul, mind and strength.” Counsels on Stewardship, 35. The greatest joy then can come as we sacrifice for the work of God. When we give our gifts for the advancement of gospel we are placing our possession in the heavenly “storehouse.” Once again we ask: “Another Week of Sacrifice?” The answer comes quickly, yes; thank God the answer still is yes. We may give, that selfishness can be pushed aside. We have yet another opportunity to show our love to God by bringing to Him a gift. Yet another Week of Sacrifice that our offerings may be placed in the heavenly treasury for the presenting of the gospel of salvation. On Sabbath, November 6, the Lord will give us yet another time to show our commitment to Him. The needs of the world church are great and we can have the blessing of giving. Let us sacrifice that the Good News might be carried to all the world. W. D. Blehm, President Southeastern California Conference FSC Completes Food Facility Food Systems Consultants (FSC), a consulting organization associated with Andrews University, has recently completed its work in the development of a new food service facility for the University of Mon-temorelos in Mexico. The project involved selection of meal preparation equipment and plans for a new food service building with adequate space and traffic flow. The facility is in operation for the 1976-77 school year. FSC director and Montemore-los project coordinator Clinton Wall said of the facility, valued at two million pesos ($250,000), “They say there is nothing comparable to it in all Mexican educational systems.” “The new food service system will contribute to a higher standard of food quality and student health in Mexico,” said Wall. “Not only will people enjoy eating there, but also being part of the working team.” A number of Seventh-day Adventist institutions donated their used equipment to the Montemorelos facility, and Wall feels that a number of specific needs were miraculously provided for. “The need would come in and the same day a call would come, ‘We have an 80-quart mixer up here in New England. Can you help us find a home for it?’ It was absolutely the work of the Lord.” Plans are now being laid for the establisnment of a food service training program in Montemorel os. The program will train cooks, bakers, supervisors and dietitians. It will also aid in planning and conducting workshops for many hospitals and educational institutions in the Inter-American Division.

Classes include photography, furniture construction, aviation, automotive care, welding, drafting, metal machines operation, and carpentry. While some students want to learn these skills only for their personal enjoyment, many others see them as essential to career development. Photography course offerings are being expanded to meet the needs of communication majors specializing in public relations, and psychology and sociology students involved in research. Consumer-related science majors interested in interior design benefit from courses in upholstery, furniture construction, and house planning. The aviation and building courses are relevant to students thinking about mission service. Pre-dental students are trained by Jake Walcker in dental metals. Many students who major in industrial studies are working to become applied arts teachers at the high school level. In welding classes, Arthur Walls prepares his students for the certification tests necessary to get a job. Over 4,500 students have enrolled at Loma Linda University this year, the largest number of students ever to attend the school. "We are very happy to see the total enrollment exceeding last year's figure of 4,396," says LLU President V. Norskov Olsen, "and we feel this indicates the service provided by the University is well received within the Church." In fact, Olsen calls the University a microcosm of the world Church, with more than 600 students from 70 countries contributing to the cosmopolitan atmosphere. After meeting with several student and faculty groups, Olsen reports he has never seen a finer spirit revealed on the school's two campuses. "We are looking forward to a year blessed by God," he says. Industrial studies students work on a car in automotive care class. Offerings in auto mechanics have been strengthened by new equipment purchases made possible by a gift from Byron Halstead of Zelienople, Pennsylvania.

I would like the book on Happiness Wall to Wall sent. I have been married for over 10 years now and didn’t think much about it until watching your show. We are happy, but like you say, if we could bring back 10 years it would be much better. I have three children and love them very much, but it is easy to avoid them while watching a ball game, or be involved in something other than the welfare of these little ones who need me so much. My wife is a good wife and a good mother also. I want to be a better husband and a better father. "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."
