Filipino Camp Meeting Slated for May
Filipino Adventists and friends
in Northern and Central Califor-
nia conferences will convene for
the fifth Annual Camp Meeting to
be held May 25-28 (Memorial Day
weekend) at Leoni Meadows, lo-
cated east of Placerville and nes-
tled in the mountains of Grizzly
Flats—a lovely place with peaceful
surroundings. It is a perfect place
to commune with God before the
beauty of His creation.
Invited guests to this occasion
are Royce C. Williams of It Is
Written telecasts; Alberta Mazat
from Loma Linda University, de-
partment of marriage and family
therapy; and George Atiga, Asian
/South Pacific ministries director
of Pacific Union Conference.
Most of the Filipino brethren re-
member Elder Williams, who spent
many years of mission service in
the Philippines as ministerial sec-
retary of North Philippine Union
Mission and also as speaker of the
Voice of Prophecy there. Then he
went on to serve in the Far Eastern
Division as ministerial secretary.
Professor Mazat will conduct a
seminar on her field of expertise.
She has written several books and
numerous articles regarding the
very important subject of mar-
riage and family. It will be a thrill-
ing experience to listen to and be
counseled through her presenta-
tion, and it will greatly enhance
the family relationship in a Chris-
tian context.
Elder Atiga, prior to his current
post, was pastor of Central Filipi-
no Church in Los Angeles.
Plan now to attend this camp
meeting. Those who have an RV
should bring it as housing facilities

Each year the students and

For the second

Rhonda is continuing the tradition
by bringing in $150 to $200 for In-
gathering each year. She is a sixth-
Rhonda Bromell
grader and an active Pathfinder
also.
Walter Webb, principal of the

he is very proud of her and all of
the other young people who work

KTAR Features America’s Religion
The Pat McMahon Show, a
morning talk show on Phoenix
Radio Station KTAR, recently
featured the many religious faiths
of America.
Communications director for
the Arizona Conference, Ron
Russell, was contacted by KTAR
to secure representatives to be
guests on the show for the Sev-
enth-day Adventist Church. Elders
Lee Hadley and Ron Russell ac-
cepted the station’s invitation.
The Pat McMahon Show is a
call-in interview program. Mr.
McMahon covered several topics
concerning the Church and its
beliefs before opening the pro-
gram for call-in questions. The
topics included the Sabbath, mis-
sionary outreach, diet, the second
coming of Christ, forgiveness of
sin, who will be in heaven, and the
use of drugs and alcohol.
Mr. McMahon gave opportunity
for a listenership estimated at over
300,000 to gain an acquaintance
with the Church.
PACIFIC UNION RECORDER / APRIL 16, 1984
A participant in Reach Unlimited
struggles toward achievement.
Last summer the staff of Reach
Unlimited began in the Sierra
what was hoped would be a grow-
ing and successful endeavor.
Directed by Karl Wilcox and
started on the campus of Weimar
College, a group of eight young
people were outfitted for a week
of adventure in the Matterhorn
Peak area of Yosemite.
The objective was to involve the
teen-agers in an active learning ex-
perience that would give them a
feeling for the values and needs of
others as well as promoting a
sense of their own dignity and
worth. ‘““The entire focus of this
adventure,” says Mr. Wilcox,
‘““‘was to unite this group into a
solid unit of young Christians
capable of action. This course was
West Point Meets in New Church
Nearly 150 people crowded into
the new West Point church for an
Open House Sabbath, February 4.
One-third of these were visitors
from the community.
Progress of the church building
and ongoing community outreach
programs were shared monthly
through the church paper, the
“Blue Mountain Views,”” put
together and edited by Joyce
Coombs, church treasurer of West
Point. ‘““We decided that this
church should be a part of the
community and that people
should know what 1s going on; so
we mail to everyone in town. Peo-
ple really look forward to the
paper now,” states Mrs. Coombs.
Many hours of labor have seen
this project through to comple-
tion. Rex and Vern Shepherd,
local builders and church mem-
bers, responded to the need for
leadership in implementing the
building plans. ‘“Their giving long
hours on the project month after
month, while carrying on full-time
jobs on other construction sites,
certainly has made the church a
reality,” writes Ron Nicholson in
“A Miracle Come True,” pre-
sented at the Open House.
What remains to be done is the
sharing of this facility with the

community. State it’s members,
““It 1s hoped that this building will

day spiritual growth.”
