HAVE A DEAL! Only twenty-five 
cents for a book entitled "How to 
become a mediocre Christian." 
Anyone interested? I doubt there are 
any takers because, who among us 
wants to be mediocre? But is not this 
the state that many of us find 
ourselves in? Many of us live below 
our spiritual potential that God 
intended for each one. 
A paradox found in scripture is 
the emphasis placed on the virtue of 
discontentment. This is a truth that 
needs consideration in today's world 
where the tendency of complacency 
appears to be the norm. 
Contentment which produces 
serenity, patience, and composure is 
not only vitally important, but it is the 
absolute ingredient necessary to 
achieve success and happiness. 
Paul states "Godliness with 
contentment is great gain." 1 Tim. 6:6 
The secret of this godly contentment 
is given in the following statement: 
"Let your conversation be 
without covetousness; and be 
content with such things as ye 
have: for he hath said, I will 
never leave you, nor forsake you." 
Heb. 13:5 
On the other hand, there is a 
form of contentment which is the 
deadly foe of spiritual growth, 
progress, and development, resulting 
in apathy and insensibility. 
There are times when we become 
so dissatisfied with our spiritual lives 
that complacency can no longer be 
tolerated. Discontentment then, is 
absolutely necessary to spiritual 
advancement. 
Those who are perfectly satisfied 
with the status quo should be 
prepared for stagnation and the 
fossilization which knows no change. 
Without a feeling of discontentment 
over the achievements of the past, 
and an urge to go on to greater 
heights in the future, students will fail 
to obtain knowledge, artists, 
musicians, teachers, physicians, 
administrators, will remain mediocre. 
Every reformation has had its 
source and inspiration in discontent 
over prevailing conditions. 
There is nothing so displeasing to 
Christ or so dangerous to our spiritual 
wellness as complacency and listless 
indifference. 
Let us not be like the self-
righteous Pharisees who Jesus 
contended with because they felt they 
lacked nothing spiritual. They were 
too contented with their spiritual 
condition to make the changes 
necessary to their salvation. 
In order for spiritual reformation 
to take place in each of our lives we 
must become discontent with our 
present spiritual condition. This will 
only happen as we spend time in 
studying God's word and in constant 
communion in prayer, finding out 
what His will is for us and how to 
obtain the more abundant life that He 
so generously offers. 
There is no limit to the power of 
God to change lives. But we must 
first be willing to surrender our 
thoughts, our words, and our actions 
to Him every moment of every day. 
Are we willing to commit the 
time and energy necessary to realize 
the contentment that is essential to 
progress so that we may eventually 
experience the joy that will 
characterize life in the kingdom of 
glory?

CANADIAN ADVENTIST 
In the past couple of years, the St. 
John's church has been enriched by the 
presence of several immigrant families, 
mostly from Cuba. Javier and Inna Vidal 
and their five-year-old daughter moved 
to St. John's from Cuba in 1992. Javier is 
originally from Cuba, while Inna comes 
from Ukraine. Now they have shared the 
truths they learned in the Seventh-day 
Adventist Church in St. John's with In-
na's family in Ukraine, and the result of 
that sharing makes an inspiring story. 
As Javier says, "Like most of the 
families in the socialist countries, we 
grew up without any knowledge of the 
Bible. We only had what our grand-
mother told about God because at that 
time it was impossible to get a Bible, and 
so it still is in Cuba." Javier married In-
na in Moscow, and they were living in 
Ukraine during the collapse of the Soviet 
Union in 1991. For the first time they 
were able to study the Bible in the Rus-
sian language. Inna's mother studied 
with a young woman who was a 
Jehovah's Witness, and through her the 
family received their own Bible. 
Javier and Inna returned to Cuba, and 
came to Canada shortly after that. Javier 
says, "After two weeks living in St. 
John's we found out that in the Seventh-
day Adventist Church there was a free 
English as a Second Language course for 
immigrants and very soon we were en-
joying it. That was the first time we were 
in an Adventist church. There we met ex-
cellent people willing to help us to learn 
English and start a new life." Javier also 
received his first Spanish Bible at the 
Adventist church, and they continued to 
study eagerly. 
In March 1993, three Spanish pastors, 
Eradio Alonzo, Emilio Girado and Henry 
Guzman, came to St. John's to conduct 
a series of meetings. Says Javier, "those 
courses were just what we needed; they 
were very interesting and logical . .. So, 
at the end of those courses my wife and 
I decided to be baptized the way the 
Bible says and join the Seventh-day 
Adventist Church." 
At the same time, Javier and Inna were 
writing to their families in Ukraine and 
Cuba about what they were learning. Ac-
cording to Javier, "My wife's brother 
wrote that they started to study the Bi-
ble every day as soon as they received 
our letter and were very glad that we 
found such a church .. . He asked us to 
find for them some literature in Russian 
or Ukrainian, so they could understand 
better everything they were reading in 
the Bible." Javier and Inna were unable 
to find any material in those languages. 
They struggled to translate their English 
studies into Russian, spending a day or 
two on each of the first couple of lessons. 
Because this was an almost impossible 
task with their limited English, they 
decided that all they could do was to con-
tinue writing about what they had learn-
ed, and pray that God would guide In-
na's family in their studies. 
In November 1993 their prayers were 
answered. Pastor Victor Schulz and his 
wife went to Ukraine from Canada*, con-
ducting evangelistic meetings in Poltava, 
where Inna's family lives. They con-
ducted meetings for a month, meeting 
three times a day in one of the city's big-
gest theatres. Javier tells the rest of the 
story: "My mother-in-law, with her fami-
ly, started attending this course from the 
beginning without missing a day. It was 
very interesting to them to know about 
our faith. After the course was finished, 
more than a thousand people decided to 
be baptized and join the Seventh-day 
Adventist Church in the city where the 
population is near three hundred thou-
sand people. The baptism took place in 
the swimming pool at the sport stadium 
of the city. My mother-in-law, with her 
husband and their thirteen-year-old son, 
were baptized. They wrote in their letter 
to us: 'For us there is no question that 
we were doing the right thing and we are 
very happy that such a wonderful and 
important event took place in our 
lives.' " 
Isn't it inspiring to know that a Chris-
tian outreach here in Newfoundland can 
have a ripple effect that changes lives as 
far away as Ukraine? Pastor Emilio 
Girado will be returning to St. John's in 
March to continue studying with the 
Spanish-speaking people in our church. 
Let's continue to pray for this outreach, 
for our new members here, and for 
God's work around the world!

Poltava was published in the March issue of

OOKING ON THE MAP, I wonder 
how I made it through all ten 
provinces, climbing hills, 
sometimes rough narrow roads or no 
shoulder! (There were more good 
roads, than bad, however). The 
answer was, "I had a mission." I told 
everyone that we must be in harmony 
with nature to stay healthy or to be 
restored to health, and, in order to 
lower the cost of healthcare, we must 
take more responsibility for our own 
health. Indeed the press was really 
with us and journalists and 
photographers often lingered to hear 
about the value of a FRESH START

On July 7, 1993, the Canadian 
Broadcasting Company did a short 
movie on my adventures around the 
world. It was aired twice across 
Canada. As well, CBC-TV and radio 
covered us all the way to 
Newfoundland. We were on 150 TV, 
newspaper and radio interviews on 
the road. What a wonderful way to 
spread the good news! 
Gene was the cook, laundry man, 
media director, and catalyst. Indeed, 
he was the anchor man as we steadily 
by Charlotte Hamlin 
moved east chalking off the miles over 
the Trans Canada, the longest paved 
highway in the world. Riding in near 
freezing weather, fog, high winds or 
rain, was risky at times. There were 
many perfect days too! By turning one 
pedal at a time, I drank in the charm 
radiating from lakes, rivers, 
mountains and forests. At times, their 
beauty was unsurpassed by anything I 
had ever seen. 
From heavy traffic in Winnipeg to 
uninhabited, unchanged wilderness in 
some parts, we found a new depth of 
meaning to life. We reached St. 
John's, Newfoundland, on October 
12, 1993, to complete over 4,000 miles. 
Along the way, rich and poor alike 
honoured us. Mayors, teachers, and 
government officials showed warmth

of a healthy lifestyle while she visited Parliament Hill, in Ottawa, Ontario.

and concern for a safe journey. Eric 
McDonald of Marine Atlantic arranged 
free ship passage to Newfoundland 
and back. Church pastors and 
members welcomed us when we were 
in their vicinity on Sabbath. Miracles 
happened out there to bring us home 
safely to finish whatever task lies 
ahead. 
Both of us rejoiced, in December, as 
we read a letter from Dr. Wayne 
Spence, M.D., which came from WRS 
Publishers, located in Texas. The first 
paragraph reads, "I read with great 
interest your letter and watched the 
video. We would be definitely 
interested in publishing a book about 
Charlotte's life and treks." They 
publish only "non-fiction stories of 
impossible dreams," says Spence, 
"ordinary people accomplishing 
extraordinary things." 
I have a rough manuscript which 
must be reduced, polished, and 
brought to life. Hopefully we can be 
done in two to three months. 
What is next? Fresh Start for Health 
seminars in the churches teaching the 
ten principles of health to be 
coordinated by the pastors and church 
members to present to the public. The 
once-a-week four evening programs in 
the churches will cover the physical, 
mental, and spiritual components of 
which the spiritual is vitally 
important. Life At Its Best states, 
"Apart from divine power no genuine 
reform can be affected...not until the 
life of Christ becomes a vitalizing 
power in our lives can we resist the 
temptations that assail us from within 
and from without." 
Each church family will become 
acquainted with a community family, 
visiting and guiding as they practice 
in their home how to live a healthier 
lifestyle. These classes will be 
scheduled and taught at least twice a 
year by the church family. If you 
would like information about this 
program, please call 616-983-3322 or 
mail your questions to Fresh Start for 
Health, 520 Pleasant Street, St. 
Joseph, Michigan, 49085. 
Thanks, Canadians for your love 
and hospitality and beautiful scenery. 
After all I was born there.

Board Elects New 
Secretary 
The Bob Lemon family. 
On March 6, 1994, the Board of Direc-
tors of the Seventh-day Adventist 
Church in Canada elected Elder Bob 
Lemon to serve as Secretary/Treasurer. 
Elder Lemon has had wide experience in 
treasury work and has also served as ac-
ting Secretary/Treasurer of the Zaire 
Union and as Secretary/Treasurer of the 
Alberta Conference. He has been serving 
as the Treasurer of the Seventh-day 
Adventist Church in Canada since 
February 1992. His expertise in financial 
and administrative matters have certainly 
been appreciated. 
Sherry, Bob's wife, is presently work-
ing at the Ontario Conference as assis-
tant office manager and secretary in the 
Youth department. Bob and Sherry have 
two children, Tami and Jamie. 
The Board of Directors of the Seventh-
day Adventist Church in Canada has 
taken an action to establish a governance 
committee to give careful study to the 
structure and mission of the Union with 
a view of making the National Head-
quarters an administrative unit only. 
The action to combine the offices of 
Treasurer and Secretary was taken so 
that no additional elected personnel 
would be employed while the gover-
nance committee is conducting its study. 
This study will be completed in time for 
recommendations to be made to the 
Quinquennial Session in 1996. During 
the interim, some functions of the 
secretary will be reduced and distributed 
in order to facilitate the process.

a campaign stop in Grand Falls, New Brunswick.

Canadian Kids 
Help Cubans

S
INCE ADRA's appeal last 
summer to Canadians to help 
the people of Cuba, several 
groups across the country have 
started projects and raised funds for 
the appeal. 
A group of students and staff at 
the Coralwood Adventist Academy in 
Edmonton, Alberta, held a Nickel 
Blitz in November and raised over 
$168 for the Cuba Fund. 
Another group of concerned people 
at the Saskatoon Central SDA Church 
also started a project for Cuba. 
Headed by the Primary Division 
Sabbath School, the children and 
adults of the Saskatoon Central 
Church put their efforts together and 
came up with an original and fun 
idea. 
After hearing a sermon in 
September by John Howard, the 
ADRA Canada director, the Primary 
Division was inspired to help. Elder 
Howard had mentioned that one of 
the many needs in Cuba is the need 
for soap and other hygiene products. 
Barbara Raney, leader of the 
Saskatoon Central Primary Division, 
was reminded of a project she had 
been involved in previously, at a 
junior high school. The students had 
collected various items, packed them 
in drawstring bags and sent them to 
needy students. Barbara thought this 
would be a perfect approach to the 
Cuba project. 
"I had been trying to come up 
with a hands-on mission project for 
the Primary class," Barbara said. "We 
emphasize mission in our Sabbath 
School but we needed a direct hands-
on experience." 
The Primary Division children, a 
class of sixteen members between the 
ages of seven and ten, and their four 
leaders, sent letters to their families 
requesting donations. The class asked 
for donations of toothpaste, 
toothbrushes, face cloths, bars of 
soap, and combs. As the word 
spread, the class received some major 
donations. 
One dentist donated 100 
toothbrushes and a case of dental 
floss, containing 144 packets. The Oral 
B Laboratories Incorporated donated 
100 toothbrushes as well. One couple, 
members of the Saskatoon Central 
Church, donated $200 as a personal 
mission project towards the purchase 
of items or shipping costs. Several 
ladies in the church volunteered their 
time and talents to sew 200 
drawstring bags to hold the items. 
As more donations came in, the 
excitement level of the Primary class 
rose. The children personally packed 
each bag and slipped in a little signed 
note written in Spanish, saying, 
"From your little brother (or sister) in 
Christ." 
The Saskatoon Central Church 
administration also got into the action, 
and voted to support the Primary 
Division's mission project with an 
additional $200. 
"It is really thrilling that the 
Church Board has such confidence in 
our little Division," Barbara said. 
John Howard, the ADRA Canada 
director, left on March 17 for Cuba; 
his luggage filled with the first 120 
bags provided by the Saskatoon 
Central Primary Division for the 
people of Cuba. The rest of his 
luggage was filled with bottles of 
vitamins for Cuban children, which 
ADRA purchased with the funds sent 
by Coralwood Academy in Edmonton. 
By now, the local children and their 
families will be enjoying the care 
packages and the vitamins which will 
help to ease their situation. 
Thanks so much to the students and 
adults of Coralwood Academy and the 
Saskatoon Central church for their 
enthusiastic and creative support of 
the Cuba Relief Fund!

What Is Genuine Sacrifice? 
by J.W. Wilson 
"Gather my saints together unto me; those that 
have made a covenant with me by sacrifice." Psalm 50:5 
O
ne of the most puzzling 
problems facing the average 
Christian is the relationship 
between prosperity and sacrifice. 
Abraham, Solomon, Job, and Joseph 
and many others all died very wealthy 
and were counted worthy of eternal 
life. III John 2 says, "Beloved, I wish 
above all things that thou mayest 
prosper." 
So men and women exercise their 
God-given rights, use their talents 
and time and become prosperous. 
Then come the sermons, articles, and 
admonition on the subject of sacrifice. 
What is genuine sacrifice? 
If it means giving things then total 
sacrifice would mean a zero balance. 
Now wouldn't that be interesting! 
Having absolutely nothing would 
make us totally worthless to 
ourselves, to our friends; and to the 
cause. As a matter of fact, we would 
be a burden to the world because we 
would ultimately be destitute. 
Selfishness is where it all begins 
and God isn't taking the selfish to 
heaven—not with pearly gates and 
streets of gold. No way! There would 
be gold "diggers" everywhere. Would 
we like to find our heavenly selves in 
another earthly mess? 
We are told that God tests us here 
with material things. In other words, 
we are handling perishable things so 
He can decide if we are capable of 
handling the imperishable. If we can't 
manage a few bucks here, it isn't 
probable that we could manage a 
galaxy or two of stars later on. 
So why don't we sell everything, 
put it in the cause, and get the work 
finished, for if heaven is as good as 
we say it is, what on earth are we 
"We can give 
without loving, 
but we 
cannot love 
without giving." 
doing down here? The trouble is, why 
should I rid myself of all these goods 
when everyone else keeps theirs? 
Psalm 50:5 says, "Gather my saints 
together unto me, those who have 
made a covenant with me by 
sacrifice". We are talking about a 
covenant, and what it is. It is an 
agreement between two individuals, 
or groups of persons, to do or not to 
do certain things. 
God made covenants with His 
people. He promised that Abraham's 
seed would be like the sands of the 
sea. He was rich but God didn't ask 
him for money—He asked for 
dedication. As a result, we have the 
agonizing trip to Mt. Moriah and the 
request to plunge the dagger into 
Isaac's quivering flesh. 
If sacrifice meant the giving of 
things, he would have had to kill his 
only son. God accepted the fact that 
Abraham was willing. Although God 
owns everything, there are two things 
over which He has no control—none 
whatsoever—first, our choices, and 
second, our wills. For love demands 
freedom of choice. 
We can give without loving, but we 
cannot love without giving. It is that 
simple. The sacrifices God desires are 
"a broken and contrite heart". David 
learned that from Nathan, for it was 
readily apparent that David's spirit 
was wild and ungovernable, 
unfortunately very much like ours. 
God doesn't want us to self-
destruct. He doesn't want us to feel 
guilty about our possessions, because 
our possessions are not what 
stewardship is all about. The focus is 
not on possessions, but on 
partnership and ownership. 
What we really need to understand 
is the covenant with God—our 
willingness to relinquish ourselves—
our time, talent and treasure. This is 
what is implicit in sacrifice and the 
taming of the will. 
We should remember that if Jesus 
could have given things for our 
salvation, He could have given a 
whole universe or two; but what He 
did cost Him His life. And that is 
what it will cost us—"take my life and 
let it be". For true sacrifice is giving 
ourselves, for that is all we really 
possess. 
Duty is a delight and sacrifice 
becomes a pleasure.

MESSENGER/APRIL 1994 7 
"The FOOL" 
E E AWOKE in a ditch. A 
light rain was falling and 
he was soaked and chilled. 
He lay still, trying to recollect the 
events of the past several days. It was 
like a black hole, darker than the 
night surrounding him. He rolled over 
and retched, nauseated by the smell 
of stale alcohol and dried vomit. 
Painfully pushing himself to his 
feet, he staggered to the road, started 
walking in the direction of his home. 
He looked down at his torn shirt 
covered with dried blood. 
"You fool!" He cursed himself. 
"You did it again. Forty years old, 
and you cannot lick this alcohol 
problem. What kind of a weakling are 
you? Can't lick a little bottle." Always 
there was remorse after a "drunk", a 
binge that would wipe days and 
sometimes weeks out of his memory. 
His thoughts turned to his wife. How 
is she able to stand this? Twenty two 
years of this alcohol bingeing. Why 
hadn't she left long ago? Perhaps this 
time she had; she had every reason. 
A car came around the corner and 
slowed behind him. He turned to see 
the face of his wife behind the wheel. 
Shame swelled in his chest as he slid 
in beside her. He could tell by her red 
swollen eyes that she had spent 
sleepless nights searching for him. 
"It must be her religion that keeps 
her with me," he thought as he slid 
his aching body into the hot foaming 
bath she had prepared for him. 
Memories of a vicious fight the night 
before flashed through his foggy 
mind. "When will this end?" he 
thought in despair. "This thing is like 
a vice on my soul. It is tearing my 
family apart and I am powerless to 
conquer it. What a fool!" 
Kenneth C. Crawford 
He noticed a magazine lying on the 
floor beside the tub. Drying his 
trembling hands he reached for it and 
examined the cover. It was a picture 
of a man sitting at the table with his 
face hidden in his hands, an empty 
wine bottle beside him. The title read 
"THE FOOL" "Help for the 
hopeless". He flipped to the article. 
The article stirred his soul as he read 
of the triumph of one man over his 
alcoholism. He read the magazine 
from cover to cover. 
Two weeks passed in quick 
succession. Buoyed by the articles 
from the magazine, he stayed "dry". 
For most of the third week the home 
hummed with excitement. It was 
vacation time. This would be the first 
family trip in several years. Suitcases 
were packed, food purchased and 
favourite toys carefully chosen. 
The day of the trip dawned sunny 
and warm. A quick breakfast, then 
the car was carefully packed and last 
minute preparations made while the 
children played on the front lawn. 
"I'm going to run to the store for 
some flashlight batteries," he called to 
the children. Backing the car out of 
the driveway he headed down the hill 
to the store. As he passed the shelves 
of liquor, an overwhelming urge for 
one little nip seized him. Carefully he 
chose a large bottle, paid for it and 
hurried out. 
This time when he awoke he was 
lying in the clean white sheets of a 
hospital bed. One eye was bandaged 
and one hand was in a cast. Through 
the fog he remembered scenes of the 
last few days. Another binge, an 
accident. It had happened again. 
On the nightstand lay another 
magazine. Eagerly he reached for it 
and read it from cover to cover. 
From that point the monthly 
"Signs" became his life line. He 
eagerly watched the mail for the next 
issue. Sometimes through the fog of 
the liquor he would read the 
magazine. Articles on doctrine, articles 
of spiritual encouragement, stories of 
testimony of others who had won 
battles of life through the power of a 
mighty God in control of their lives. 
Then came the first halting prayers 
of a broken man. Pleading, agonizing 
prayers, then the surrender, the 
precious peace of quiet surrender 
turning a broken, ruined life over to 
the loving gentle hand of God. Then 
the path of victory, sweet victory. 
Each month the "Signs" magazine 
became his "high". A life once out of 
control became a life of honour 
recreated by the loving hand of a 
caring God.

Christian and a leader in the church

INGSWAAT 
CORNER 
Over many years of caring for the sick, 
your Health-Wise columnist would often 
speak these words of wisdom: "If there 
were just one thing, if we could prescribe 
only one treatment for every person in 
America, no matter the illness, it would 
be a program of exercise. For exercise is 
the one lifestyle habit that, for most of us, 
is in dismal supply." 
Now, here is some new advice recently 
published. Exercise does not have to be 
vigorous or overly prolonged in order to 
provide substantial health benefits. 
Whereas the classical advice has been 
30 minutes or so five or more days a 
week, now the experts are agreeing that 
several short periods of moderate exer-
cise episodes that tally up to 30 minutes 
(or more) any five days out of the week 
are simply great—just as beneficial as 30 
minutes at a stretch. 
In developed nations all over the 
world, only about one in five of us does 
this well. Yet hundreds of thousands 
(probably millions) of deaths could be 
prevented every year of our lives, if we 
would shake off the doldrums and strike 
into a more active lifestyle. 
We've known for decades now the 
three great risk-factors for heart 
disease—cigarette smoking, high blood 
pressure, and high cholesterol. Now we 
must add a fourth—physical inactivity (a 
sedentary life-style)—and give it parity 
with the other three. 
It isn't necessary that you qualify as an 
athlete nor a frenetic jogger. It doesn't re-
quire special equipment nor expensive 
clothing. The "new look" in exercise is 
that you accumulate necessary amounts 
of activity throughout the day and in a 
variety of ways. 
You can take the stairs rather than the 
elevator. Park half a block away from the 
supermarket or work site rather than 
cruising around for minutes, seeking a 
parking space close to the entry. 
Look for all sorts of little ways to in-
crease your walking time rather than 
reduce it. And remember this: even if 
you are only moderately fit, your chances 
of avoiding heart disease are much 
greater than if you are the neighborhood 
"couch potato." 
Don't forget all of the other benefits 
that exercise holds for you and your 
health. Exercise can help dissimulate 
sadness and replace it with a primal well-
being. Physical activity can stimulate a 
poor appetite. And, wonder of wonders, 
it can reduce the appetite of the com-
pulsive over-eater. 
All in all, when it comes to being happy 
and healthy, you'd have to walk a long 
way to discover something better than a 
dollop or two of honest activity. 
Surveys reveal that people with higher 
incomes and/or higher education tend to 
a more active lifestyle rather than less. 
Who knows—maybe it's the energy of 
their active lifestyles that propels them 
on into college and the higher paying 
jobs. 
It's hard to say, but perhaps it really 
doesn't matter, for most of us can be and 
should be moved to "get moving." 
St. Lucians Given a Gift 
to Last a Lifetime 
Kingsway students Julie Gregg, Judith 
Corea, Tamara Milicic and Rob Flowers 
chose to give up a relaxing spring break 
to dig ditches in the hot Caribbean sun. 
This ADRA-sponsored youth mission 
project, under the direction of Milton 
Perkins, Ontario conference youth direc-
tor, was to begin the construction of a 
trench 45 centimetres wide, 1 metre 
deep, that will contain a pipeline to carry 
water 914 metres from the main highway 
to the 300 residents of Rocky Lane near 
Dennery, St. Lucia. 
Swinging pickaxes and shovelling the 
stubborn rock, sand and clay was a very 
slow, hot and often painful process for 
the students and 18 other Canadians who 
volunteered for this mission project. 
Dr. Don Horricks and Cheryl Hort, 
who were volunteers for this project are 
alumni from Kingsway. Don, an On-
tario dentist, along with his wife Faye 
and two daughters, treated the many St. 
Lucians who waited in long lines for 
seriously needed dental care. For some 
of the adult patients it was the first den-
tal appointment in their lifetime! 
Getting to know the people who live 
in Rocky Hill personally and developing 
friendships was one of the highlights of 
the trip for the four students. Judith Cor-
ea who grew up on the neighbouring 
island of Becway was ecstatic to savour 
Left to right; Julie Gregg, Tamara Milicic, Rob 
Flowers and Judith Corea.

food favourites from home, but for 
Tamara, Julie and Rob there were many 
new flavours such as breadfruit, sour 
sap, and tamarind drink. Plentiful 
favourites the students enjoyed with the 
basic rice and legumes were mangoes, 
fresh coconut and sugar cane. 
The students shared their speaking and 
singing talents for various programs in 
neighbouring villages. The local MP for 
the Dennery area, chief engineer for the 
country's water and sewage authority 
were on hand to praise the students and 
to encourage the first phase of this 
project. 
The students were given the chance to 
share their faith, meet new friends, 
travel, see exactly how ADRA helps 
those in great need around the world and 
are ready to volunteer again soon!

A Typical Day 
The incessant buzzing of the alarm 
awakens me at 6:45 a.m. My muscles are 
still tense from the game of basketball last 
evening. I haul my body out of bed and 
into the warm shower. After combing 
back my hair I leave for the breakfast of 
pancakes and HoneyNut Cheerios. By 
the time I have completed this it is now 
7:30. After morning devotions I quickly 
do my physics homework before heading 
out to work at 8:00 a.m. 
Work in the Guidance Counselling and 
Recruiting office is quiet today. A 
minimal amount of effort is needed to 
finish the assigned tasks for the day. The 
clock slowly marches on until the two 
hands point to twelve. Lunchtime! I run 
over to the cafeteria and join my friends 
at a table close to the window overlook-
ing Lake Barnett. The meal is finished 
shortly and it's back to the dorm to fetch 
my books for my afternoon classes. 
Physics passes by quickly. After a five 
minute break, I find myself writing a 
math test which takes only half of the 
eighty minute period. English is an en-
joyable class. After reading the story we 
discuss the various aspects of how it 
relates to our lives. It is finally 4:45 p.m. 
The weekend has officially begun! 
I race back to the room, and after a has-
ty clean-up the Resident's Assistant rates 
the room for cleanliness. We lose two 
points, one for not emptying the garbage, 
and another for not cleaning the mirror. 
We then head off to supper. Tonight they 
are serving perogies and sauerkraut. It 
is now 5:30, I go back to the dorm and 
read "The Hunt for Red October". At 
7:00 I have a shower and prepare for the 
vespers service this evening. At 7:30 I 
join the stream of students walking to the 
College Heights Church. After being 
checked off, I take a seat close to the back 
of the church. 
The music starts for the ten minute 
song service which is then followed by 
a series of skits by the Campus Ministries 
group on the importance of Christian 
witness. Vespers concludes at 8:15. We 
all head back to Maple Hall for two hours 
of socializing. By 11:00, having brushed 
my teeth and readied myself for bed, I 
look forward to tomorrow.

Moose Jaw Baptism 
Pastor Mervin Kempert performed baptismal rites for five persons in the Moose law 
baptistry on December 11. They are: Grant Armson, Greg Armson, Devone Foulston, 
Clarence and Rosalie Neufeld. They were accepted into membership at Moose law, ex-
cept for Devone who joined the Tugaske church. 
William Brucks and his investment project. 
MANITOBA-SASKATCHEWAN 
Investment Project 
William Brucks, 88 years of age, of 
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan has some uni-
que experiences with his Investment pro-
jects. Last December he made for his 
daughter a step-stool, patterned and 
painted like a holstein cow. Tucking the 
"cow" under his arm he boarded a bus 
to deliver it, dropping in at a lumber yard 
on the way. He showed the step-stool to 
a clerk and she immediately asked him 
to make one for her. A week later the 
same bus driver asked Bill to make a 
"cow" for him for a Christmas present 
for his wife. This "cow" was sitting in 
the living room waiting to be picked up 
when a visiting lady saw it and ordered 
two. She took the first one made and 
later Bill delivered the second one to the 
Nursing Home where she works and two 
workers liked the "cow" and each 
ordered one. Later two others were 
ordered by different individuals. Some-
one saw the "cow" as Bill was having his 
picture taken with it and bought it. When 
this photo was picked up from the 
developers, someone requested a cow 
made for them! 
Bill enjoys advertising his wares on the 
city bus—sometimes a grain elevator, 
sometimes a penguin pull toy, a wren 
house, or whatever. God blesses his In-
vestment and gives him the health and 
ingenuity to devise and create new pro-
jects each year for the advancement of 
God's work. 
Glyne Thompson and Peter Penner, 
working with the Junior-Earliteen and 
Primary children, also encouraged In-
vestment and turned in around $200.

Large Baptism at Pineridge 
Following an evangelistic crusade during November and December in Calgary, twenty-eight 
individuals joined the church family by baptism. They are pictured here with Verne Snow, 
evangelist at the left and Pastor Will lames at right. Two persons are missing from the photo. 
They are Maryanna Lowid and Wayne Wolgemuth. 
ALBERTA 
To the Children of Ukraine, With Love 
Baptism at Sylvan Lake 
In conjunction with evangelistic 
meetings held by Pastor Victor Schulz, 
Ruth Riffin of Lacombe, Alberta recently 
coordinated four weeks of children's 
meetings in Poltava, Ukraine, a city of 
350,000. Two meetings a day had been 
scheduled but the attendance was so 
great this was changed to three times 
daily and four times on Sabbath. 
Meeting in a large theatre, between 
200-400 children attended daily. The 
children listened to Bible stories and 
character building stories, as well as 
memorizing many Bible verses. They 
learned new songs and enjoyed crafts, 
games and especially the felts. Dr. Sid 
Kettner from the British Columbia con-
ference presented health talks. Judging 
from the posters children created, these 
made a real impression. Several public 
school teachers brought their classes to 
the meetings. Schools were eager to have 
the children learn about Jesus. They 
wanted to know more about health and 
the dangers of smoking, drinking and 
other habits. Children in the Ukraine 
smoke at a very early age. In fact, some 
of them had to leave the meeting to have 
a smoke. 
Communication was somewhat of a 
problem as the interpreter was not 
always available to translate for Ruth, 
however, she spoke some Ukrainian and 
had her dictionary handy, so all went 
well. The language of love is universal 
and God worked everything out. 
The weather was cold, in fact bitterly 
cold for that part of the country. Many 
layers of clothing had to be worn, both 
day and night! Transportation was dif- 
ficult as well. The pastor of Poltava 
church used his car on Sabbath only as 
gasoline and parts are very expensive. 
Ruth and her husband Sylvester, who 
accompanied her, visited in many homes 
and were warmly welcomed. They didn't 
miss the food "back home" but enjoyed 
the borscht, perogies, beets, cabbage and 
other locally grown foods such as apples, 
apricots, cherries and walnuts. "The peo-
ple were wonderful," states Ruth, "so 
friendly and accommodating. They went 
out of their way to make us comfor-
table." 
The Ukraine desperately needs more 
trained workers. They hope to have their 
own seminary one day. 
As an expression of her re-dedication to the 
Lord and her sincere desire for His blessing and 
guidance in her life, Theresa Ahner was re-
baptized by Pastor Ron Nelson in the Sylvan 
Lake Church on January 22, 1994. She was ac-
companied by her children Jacob and Amanda. 
Dressed in little robes, one black, one white, 
they stood on a step of the baptistry and 
solemnly watched their mother's baptism. 
Mrs. Ruth Riffin teaches Ukrainian children 
about Jesus through the use of felts.

MARITIMES 
Grads Promote 
Breathe-Free Seminar 
The Halifax Infirmary was the site of 
another Breathe-Free Stop Smoking pro-
gram during the month of February. It 
was a successful program with all par-
ticipants graduating with the Bachelor of 
Non Smoking degree. One of the 
graduates, Wayne Dunn, works at the 
Parker St. Food bank. His decision to quit 
smoking prompted his uncle to give up 
the habit as well. Another graduate, John 
Dean a teacher at one of the local public 
schools had attended the seminar two 
years ago and remained smoke free for 
about eight months before taking up the 
habit again. John came to the seminar a 
second time because of his confidence in 
it. He was a successful in giving it up in 
this last session and is arranging to have 
Pastor Gilbert speak about smoking and 
health with the grade six students in the 
public school system in Halifax. 
It was an encouragement to have 
Heather Hartlen, a graduate from two 
years ago, attend and give her 
testimonial. Heather has been promoting 
the benefits of the Breathe-Free program 
to her friends and is looking forward to 
the next seminar that will be held in 
Sackville in April.

Rutland Baptism 
Katherine Hakkarainen was baptized 
by Pastor Fox into the Rutland Church. 
She first heard of the Advent message 
from her husband who knew of our 
beliefs in his childhood years when his 
parents had embraced these truths. 
Because Katherine already loved the Lord 
and was seeking truth, one Sabbath 
morning she came to the church. She at-
tended Leo Schreven's meetings and ac-
cepted Jesus as her Saviour. She now has 
a burden for her husband and family. 
Katherine Hakkarainen with Pastor James Fox, 
was baptized January 29 in the Rutland church. 
Orchard City 
Baptisms 
On January 1, 1994, starting the New Year in 
a special way, Erinn Anderson dedicated her 
life to Christ in baptism. Erinn is a Grade 5 
student at Okanagan Adventist Academy. Sab-
bath, March 5, 1994 marked another joyous oc-
casion for the members of the Orchard City 
Church when brothers, Paul and Chad Rhynard 
committed their lives to the service of the Lord. 
Paul is a Grade 6 student and Chad a Grade 
9 student at Okanagan Adventist Academy. 
Farewell to Pastor 
Terry Sparks & Family 
On Saturday evening, February 26, 
1994 the Orchard City Church in 
Kelowna, B.C. held a business meeting 
at Okanagan Adventist Academy. After 
a few items on the agenda were discuss-
ed, the church business was tabled to 
wish Pastor Terry Sparks, his wife Lee-
Ann, daughter Sasha and son Jonathan, 
God's blessings as they move across 
Canada to their new home in Toronto, 
Ontario. Pastor Sparks will be the new 
senior pastor of Immanuel Seventh-day 
Adventist Church effective April 1, 1994. 
Jill and Dave Rhynard reminisced 
about the past five years the Sparks have 
been in the Okanagan Valley before 
presenting Pastor Terry and Lee-Ann 
with a beautiful wildlife print on behalf 
of the church members. Refreshments 
were then served. The Sparks family will 
be greatly missed.

As there was no Adventist presence in the Madawaska and Victoria (French-speaking) counties 
of northwestern New Brunswick less than five years ago, Pastor Robi Robichaud pioneered 
this unentered territory and has, through the Lord's leading, raised up a church to witness in 
this vast community.

Tragic Accident Near Smiths Falls 
Saturday evening, December 18, 1993 Patricia Tanney (nee Plane) 
and her four children were on their way to a Christmas program at 
the Brockville SDA Church. Just south of Smiths Falls, their minivan 
hit a patch of black ice on Highway 29 and spun broadside into the 
path of an oncoming one-ton truck. Pat, 32, Lindsay, 8, the twins 
Jeremy and Jeffrey, 3, and Lucas, 11 months were all killed in the acci-
dent. Pat's husband Orval was not in the vehicle that evening. It was 
their 12th anniversary. 
Patricia was a member of the Smiths Falls SDA Company. Brought 
up in an Adventist home, Pat lived in Napanee, Peterborough, 
Hamilton, and Calgary before returning to eastern Ontario in 1975. 
Pat's mother Hazel Plane (nee McCooey) passed away seven years ago. 
Her father Ken Plane and step-mother Linda are both members of the 
Smiths Falls Company. Pat's surviving brothers and sisters are: Tim 
Plane, Bonnie Levere, Terry Plane, and Laurie-Anne Plane. Lindsay 
was a student in the Rideau Valley SDA School near Perth. 
The funeral service for Pat and her children was held at the Irvine 
Funeral Home in Brockville on December 22. Pastor Jeff Potts of the 
Smiths Falls Congregation was assisted by Pastors Richard Parent and 
Robert Putt. Ontario Conference representatives, Fitzroy Maitland and 
Dave Higgins were also present to bring condolences and words of

ADRA IN THE NEWS! 
Pastor Perkins and a group of Cana-
dian volunteers have just returned 
from their March break trip to St. 
Lucia, where they helped to construct 
a water system and provided medical 
care for the local residents. Joining 
them on the trip was Royson James, 
a Toronto journalist, who helped 
with the project and wrote a feature 
article for the Toronto Star. The 
ADRA Volunteer Trip was featured 
on the front page of the Sunday Star, 
the weekend edition of the Toronto 
Star, on March 20.

MESSENGER/APRIL 1994 
WOMEN'S MINISTRY CONFERENCE 
Theme: God's Ideal—Your Possibility 
When: Friday Evening, June 3—Sunday afternoon, June 5, 
1994. 
Where: College Park Church, 1164 King Street E. Oshawa, Ontario. 
Sponsor: College Park Church. 
All Women are invited to experience this weekend of spiritual nurture, growth 
and renewal with keynote speakers Dorothy Eaton Watts and Cynthia Prime. 
Detailed information and application forms for this special event will be sent 
to each church in Ontario by April 16, 1994. For information call the Church 
Office at (905) 725-1121 or Jean Parchment at (905) 434-6678. 
The Little Church That Grew 
New members stand behind Brampton church leaders and conference personnel. 
What a year! 1993 was a year of great 
celebration and thanksgiving for the 
Brampton Seventh-day Adventist 
Church. Not only were they one of two 
churches who assumed occupancy of 
their own building, in the greater Toronto 
area, but they welcomed an additional 
sixty converts into the Advent family. 
Forty-five responded to the baptismal call 
during a crusade conducted by Elder F. 
Maitland during the fall. 
Under the leadership of Pastor Winston 
Hurlock, and a very faithful and suppor-
tive church family, the Brampton Church 
continues to be a powerful and effective 
force in its community. 
Sabbath, February 19, 1994 marked the 
one-year anniversary of the church open-
ing, and as we look back and witness the 
power of the Holy Spirit, we step out in 
full confidence that God will lead as we 
meet the challenges of the new year. 
Continued from page 8 
"The Fool" 
for many years now. His faithful wife 
still stands by his side. When asked 
how he feels about the "Signs" 
magazine as a missionary tool, his 
eyes grow misty. "It was my 
salvation," he says quietly, "my 
victory! I owe my eternal life to the 
sacrifice made in sending that 
magazine to me". 
It seems like such a small sacrifice. 
The cost of a meal in a restaurant 
would buy a gift of a subscription to 
someone you are praying for. "Signs" 
campaign begins May 7, 1994 at your 
local church. Just remember, it's an 
investment whose yields are eternal. 
See back cover to order your Signs today.

on preaching the "good old 
Seventh-day Adventist message" 
we all know and love—but in new 
and fresh ways! It preaches the 
"old landmarks" of Adventism—
it's Christ-centered doctrines, its 
last-day prophecies, its message 
of hope for the world. But SIGNS 
is written to communicate in today's lan-
guage to people who may not understand the 
"stained-glass" vocabulary of religion. 
How many have come to 
know Jesus or have accepted 
the third angel's message 
because of the "silent" witness 
of SIGNS! Keep sharing your 
faith. This year. give SIGNS.
