Monday, November 26, 1979 / Volume 79, Number 21 / Angwin, California / Official Organ of the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists CHURCH SCHOOL youngsters watch as a modern Peterbilt tractor-trailer moves the original San Pasqual Adventist Elementary School to a permanent location. This oldest, continuously-operated Adventist church school west of the Mississippi is being restored as a historical monument to Christian education. See the story on Southeastern's page. Mission Personnel Study Language, Culture In an ongoing endeavor to serve fully the constituents of Hawaii, Mission office personnel are spending time daily in language and culture study. Noting that their members worship in 11 languages and dialects, the staff is learning to say expressions of gratitude and greetings as well as a few of the idioms of the members who frequent the Mission office. “We want to show interest in them not only as persons but also as a people,” says President Shige Arakaki. Learning the expressions himself, he then spends about three minutes with the staff after worship periods in the study. Others in the office who speak the languages themselves often help him, Elder Arakaki says. Hawaiian Mission Elementary School Children Respond to Training in Witnessing Inspired by her own experiences growing out of the witnessing seminar at the Kaneohe church, Margery Smith thought of the school where she teaches second grade. Looking at the second generation students in her classroom— many of them non-Adventists, Margery wondered what a simplified version of the training might do for Hawaiian Mission Elementary School. Hawaii’s mission schools are proven evangelistic centers anyway, but this specialized training for sharing one’s faith might add a new dimension, she thought. And so armed with materials from the church’s classes with John Collins, Margery began talking of the witnessing idea for elementary students. Though Elder Collins has L>een giving the instruction in the Union now for more than two years, no one had experimented on the techniques with children. Margery started with the third-grade room of Mrs. Saralyn Chow, feeling that the first- and second-graders might be a bit too young for all the reading. All of Mrs. Chow’s students were inter- INSPIRATION SR4S- "In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul. All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, 0 Lord, when they hear the words of thy mouth. Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord. Though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me. The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands." Psalm 138:3-8 KJV Among their 4,004 members, “Hawaiians” worship in Tagalog, the main Filipino language, but also in Ilocano and Visayan dialects; Samoan, Chinese, Tongan, Korean, Hawaiian, Japanese, and English. “Being in Hawaii with all these different languages, I think it’s fun—especially when I can greet these people in their languages,” says Sharon Jen, secretary to the president, who knows a few “second-class” words in Chinese. Adding knowledge of the cultures is also continuing to strengthen the unity even in the diversity of Hawaii. Hawaii represents half of the languages now spoken among Seventh-day Adventists in the Pacific Union Conference. MORE GENERAL NEWS ON PAGES 7 AND 8 Hillside Community Hospital of Ukiah Adventist Hospital Serves Mendocino County Feeling there was a need for a hospital in the city of Ukiah, Drs. Carl Aagaard and Kenneth Ridgley, with the help of Dr. Richard Guthrie at a later date, established Hillside Community Hospital in 1954. Today, Hillside Community Hospital (HCH) offers 43 beds, a staff of 60 physicians (active, affiliates and consulting), 92 nurses and related health-care personnel, and 92 service-related personnel. HCH provides emergency, general, and orthopedic services plus cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, physical therapy, hip replacements and electroencephalograms. In 1978, Daniel Ballew, at that time on the administrative staff of the North West Medical Foundation in Portland, Oregon, accepted the invitation of the hospital board to be the administrator. By becoming a part of the Adventist Health Services Corporation later that year, the hospital was able to receive clearance by the State of California to expand its facilities. The new hospital will be ready for occupancy in March, ested. Thus encouraged, Margery went to the rest of the classrooms. The response was so tremendous, in fact, that Margery knew she could not do all the teaching herself. The students had to meet in smaller groups so they could really discuss “how to share what Jesus means to them and tell others of God’s great love.” Today 142 students from grades 3-8 spend 45 minutes every Friday with their Bibles and out-of-print Voice of Prophecy lessons which a Hawaiian Mission Academy student is printing in a classroom. The $300 reprint costs are being met by Junior Missionary Volunteer offerings which each room Medical Personnel Are Sought for Refugee-camp Assistance Another plea for refugee assistance has come to the Seventh-day Adventist Church— this time from the United Nations. Adventist medical teams are being asked to care for the current 50,000 Cambodians now in Thailand camps—and the 200,000 more expected during the next three months. 1980, starting with a 43-bed immediate capacity, eventually providing 100 beds. In the same complex will also be a new professional building having 30 physician office suites. Currently there is a need for registered nurses to join the hospital staff.

Mellor, assistant pastor at Auburn, won his first marathon (26.375 miles) at Placerville’s Sam’s Town Wagon Trail Marathon on Sunday, October 14, completing it in 2:39 over a strong field of runners. This was his fifth marathon, including the Boston Marathon in April, 1978. Pastor Mellor runs because he believes a person should be fit physically and spiritually as well. On November 3 he completed 1,000 days of interrupted running. He logs 80-100 miles a week, summer and winter, fair weather or foul, getting in 12-14 miles a day with at least 20 miles on Sunday. Ron’s wife, Judi (Reeves), is also a runner and often she and her husband can be seen running together with Bo, their golden labrador. Judi has won in her division in several races, and also ran two marathons. She tallies about half the distance of her husband each week.

But when they do, it is all the more appreciated! Such was the pleasant surprise that greeted Rio Lindo Academy’s principal when he opened a letter from Byron Hawkins, father of a 1979 graduate. The letter said: “. . . I remember during our conversation that you mentioned a need for more maintenance personnel to prepare the school for the fall term. If agreeable to you, I would like to come over for two days to assist in whatever way I can. . . .” Such an offer couldn’t be turned down! So Principal Jim Nash offered Mr. Hawkins a choice of two projects. He chose that of dividing the too-large guidance center into an office complex for the vice-principal and the church pastor. The viceprincipal (who is also the guidance director) and the pastor have each been trying to operate from 7 x 12-foot offices, which also had to accommodate their student workers and files. Thanks to Mr. Hawkins, all that is about to change. He framed the offices in and put up the sheet rock in an amazingly short amount of time. Pastor Sam Alexander and Ron Turner, viceprincipal and guidance director, are seeing to it that the lights are The Pacific Union Recorder is the official newspaper of the Pacific Union Conference of Seventhday Adventists and is published weekly, 50 times a year, at Angwin, California 94508.

"Improving the Quality of Remaining Days" Is the Goal of St, Helena Hospice Program “Improving the quality of the remaining days of life’’ is the primary goal of Hospice of Napa Valley, says Nianne Neergaard, PHN, and Barry Zacherle, MD, of the home health-care agency, speakers at the annual dinner of the American Cancer Society’s Napa unit on the topic, “What Is Hospice?’’ “Hospice,’’ a medieval, European term, means giving comfort to those on a journey. In the case of hospice care, the journey is the course of a terminal illness and its travelers are the patient and fami-ly- “Our goal is to improve the quality of life, to help people live with meaning although they are suffering from a degenerative and irreversible disease. We also provide aid to the surviving family and friends during the final stages of the disease and through the bereavement process,’’ states Miss Neergaard. Fragmentation of the family and isolation of the patient are two of the problems facing those involved with a terminal illness. “There is a tendency for the terminally ill in our society to isolate and dehumanize themselves. The put back up and the walls are insulated and made ready for painting. The once-too-large room has now been transformed into an adequate guidance section, two student-worker offices, and an office for each of the two men. Funds are being sought to carpet and furnish these new facilities. In addition, Mr. Hawkins also donated an intercom system to the girls’ dorm. Thank you so much, Mr. Hawkins, for the “lift’’ you have given Rio Lindo Adventist Academy. patient is filled with anxiety and fear, the family becomes fragmented, not knowing how to cope with the patient, and isolation becomes apparent,’’ comments Dr. Zacherle. “The hospice program is an attempt to reverse this process, dealing with the pain and the problem, bringing the family back together in a supportive role,’’ he adds. Hospice of Napa Valley, a rela-tively-new service, is available to any valley resident on the referral of a physician. The program is designed to augment conventional medical treatment and involves a team of professionals offering management of the patient’s pain and related symptoms, assist and inform family members in care of the patient, provide consultation when needed, and bereavement support for survivors, according to Miss Neergaard. Terminally-ill patients are never left alone with the hospice program. “The program assures the patient and family that they will not be left alone. Someone is always available, 24 hours per day, seven days per week,’’ says Miss Neergaard. Bereavement support for survivors is of special importance to the hospice team, helping them cope with the stresses and problems of the period following death. “Members of the staff continue with the family after death of the patient. This is when those closest to the patient often feel they are alone, and that is when we can be most useful in helping the persons adjust,’’ comments Miss Neergaard. There is no direct charge to the patient or family for Hospice of Napa Valley. Some of the costs are defrayed by insurance, Medicare or Medi-Cal. Donations and the backing of St. Helena Hospital and Health Center cover the remaining costs.

Health Services Report Church Needs Continuing Presence For many years, the church outreach has been the victim of much talk and little action. Fine efforts put forth by a few have seldom been followed through. Our greatest need, particularly in health services, is to establish a continuous “presence” in our major cities, fostered by the local churches and the Conference. In 1977 a group of pastoral, medical, and interested people from Arroyo Grande, San Luis Obispo, and Santa Maria started a concerted effort of health evangelism. A total of eight seminars were built into a sequence that rotated through each church community. Later, a physical fitness evaluation program was added. Dick Pollard was hired to coordinate the program. Now, 20 months later, people are being helped, friendships are being made, and souls are being baptized. The churches are growing, and church members are getting excited about being involved in evangelism. A fine, continuous program headed by John Scharffenberg, MD, is also being carried on by the San Joaquin Valley Community Hospital in Bakersfield. Camp meeting was the climax of the year for health services. There were three major areas of emphasis and one significant event. 1. Over 400 participants took advantage of the “Physiology of Exercise” seminar, featuring Ken- Tour of Bible Lunds Being Orgunized by Conference A unique opportunity to spend a month in the Middle East with Biblical archaeologist Siegfried Horn is now being offered by the committee on secular campus ministries of the Central California Conference youth department. Purpose of this Living Lands of the Bible travel-and-study experience is to discover “The Roots of Religion.” Limited to 80 members, the tour group will leave San Francisco and New York Monday, June 16, for a 30-day plane-and-bus trek to Ur of the Chaldees, Nineveh, Baghdad, and Babylon in ancient Mesopotamia (modern Iraq), Abu Simbel (Aswan), Thebes, Karnak, Luxor, Gizeh, Memphis, Sakkara, and Cairo in Egypt; and Beirut, Byblos, Baalbek, Tyre, and Sidon in Lebanon. In Syria, Dr. Horn and Conference President Charles Cook, the tour host and spiritual activities coordinator, will lead the group to Krak des Chevaliers, Ugarit, and Eblah. After a day in Antioch (now Antakya in Turkey), the LLB tourists will see Homs, Palmyra and Damascus before entering Jordan to visit Jerash, Petra, Amman, Heshbon, Madeba, and Mount Nebo. Israel and the West Bank will be neth Cooper, MD, and a fine slate of speakers. 2. Health Evaluation Programs included Executive Health Evaluation, in which 115 participated; Executive Fitness Evaluation, with 70 participants; “Heartbeat,” with more than 500 people participating from January through camp meeting and the Physical Fitness Evaluation, with more than 500 people involved since January of this year. 3. Emergency Medical Services: Carol Nelson, RN, and four faithful volunteers served about 225 campers in the area of first aid this year at camp meeting. 4. The First Soquel Annual Aerobics Run: Three hundred seventy runners ran their choice of the three- or six-mile runs. About 150 of these were non-Adventists from the community. Dr. Cooper started the race, changed clothes and ran with his daughter, Stacey, still finishing ahead of many runners. The event was so popular that 1,000 participants are expected next year. Many fine programs are being conducted in churches throughout the Conference. Helping people with needs is winning friends in places like Porterville, Oakhurst, Sunnyvale, San Francisco, Modesto, and others too numerous to mention, but we have not yet achieved the objective of a “continuing presence” in every area of our field. Would you like to help? Wayne Griffith, DHSc Director, Health Services carefully examined in visits to Jericho, Tiberias, Capernaum, Nazareth, Megiddo, Caesarea, Qumran, Masada, Al Arad, Hebron, Bethlehem, Samaria, Shech-em, Shiloh, Mount Sinai, Elat, and most of all, Jerusalem, where the members of LLB will spend two of the program’s four Sabbaths. “The Roots of Religion” exploration will end Tuesday, July 15. This Living Lands of the Bible program, authorized by the General Conference and the CCC Executive Committee, includes the opportunity to earn up to nine quarter hours of credit from Pacific Union College, the only charge being a nominal recording fee. Christian Record Braille Foundation, Inc. Youth Department Hosted Many Events in 1979 The year 1979 offered to Central constituents a complete calendar of events for children and youth—an array of Bible conferences, rallies, retreats and training events. Key events were the Senior Academy Student Leadership Conference, Ethnic Bible conferences, Secular Campus Retreat, Young Married Couples Commitment Council, and Parent-Teen Retreat (a total of 24 different general meetings for constituents). Several different types of local church development have been attempted in 1979: 1. Pathfinders—under the direction of Elder Richard Hamilton and the Conference Pathfinder coordinators, three different area Pathfinder stafftraining courses have been offered, with a total attendance of 75 Pathfinder leaders. 2. Students—Central student leaders attended the Pacific Union Student Leaders’ Bible Conference at Wawona recently. Second-semester academy student association and class leaders are invited to the Senior Academy Student Leadership Conference each February, held this year at Bakersfield Adventist Academy. 3. Conventions — annual Pathfinder and Youth Leadership conventions offered an array of workshops. 4. Leaders’ Retreat — in September at Soquel the first Tour Director Richard Lee Fenn says the “program will be intensive, each day long and rigorous, the weather hot, and the value inestimable—considering that the total cost of membership in LLB is only $2,880, including transportation from San Francisco (a little less from New York), transfers, room and full board, and the basic taxes and tips usually left out of such itineraries. “We want to give Adventists affiliated with non-Adventist centers of higher education a chance to discover the roots of their religion under the guidance of one as eminent as Dr. Horn,” says Elder Fenn. “Accordingly we will give priority to Adventist students, teachers, and researchers at such institutions who want to join the group.” Elder Fenn emphasizes the importance of early reservation. “We are going to Iraq. Group-visa procedures for this country alone will take time.” Interested persons may secure additional information by contacting Richard Lee Fenn, Director, Living Lands of the Bible, Box 580, San Jose, CA 95106; telephone, (408) 297-1584, (408) 732-4080, or (415) 969-3866. Northern-Central Pathfinder Crafts workshop was offered. 5. Resources—regular department publications of Share (for Pathfinder/junior/earliteen leaders) and Team Reporter (for senior youth leaders) provide ongoing leadership helps. 6. Summer Ministries—Five students served Central churches and one worked in the youth department office this summer as Summer Ministries workers. 7. Vacation Bible Schools— Elder Hamilton’s active summer visitation of Vacation Bible Schools has helped build local Pathfinder clubs. This year saw a growth of 10 new Pathfinder clubs with a total approximate Pathfinder enrollment for the Conference of 1,325. 8.

Meryl Sprengel-Wilson, mezzo-soprano; the Belko Brass composed of the Belko Brothers, trumpet and trombone, accompanied by Ed Wagner at the piano; and the Sojourners, a male quartet from the Portland area, will perform at the concert. These artists have presented concerts in many parts of the country and will be looking forward to sharing God’s love through music at this Sabbath “how-to” training for local church youth ministry. 9. Sabbath School Workshops —Elder Veal works closely with Conference Sabbath School Director Gerald Friedrich as they offer workshops for developing local church Sabbath school programming. 10. Bike-a-thon—This year Central Pathfinders raised over $40,000 at the annual Bike-a-thon, two-thirds of which reverted to local clubs for their use. This annual fund-raising event is crucial for most clubs in the development of their ministries. Camp Wawona Significant advances in the camp ministry have been reached this year, including—final reorganization of camp personnel and operational policies; development, preliminary acceptance, and some implementation of a comprehensive camp master plan; completion of many camp construction and improvement projects; implementation of the proposed “Diversified Camping” program which emphasizes a variety of outpost-type camping options for all ages of campers; redesign of the Teen Camping program; an increase in camper attendance of 23 per cent over last year’s enrollment; realization of most projected goals for 1979 camp operation.

Conference Camporee Activities Draw 1400 Pathfinders, Staff The 1,100 Pathfinders and staff who attended this year’s Pathfinder Camporee at Los Coyotes will probably remember it most for the unusual system of events on Sunday. Nine events were run simultaneously from 9 a.m. to noon. Each person carried a personal score card and entered the events in any order he or she chose. The events included knot tying, tree height judging, a sleeping-bag stuff, boulder toss, ball throw, a very popular obstacle course, a three-legged race, sack race, and an aerial rope crawl. The program started Friday night with Elder Ron Breingan’s exciting plane-crash story. Sabbath morning each club had its own Sabbath school lesson study and Elder Brian Neal preached for the worship service. During the afternoon the Pathfinder coor- greenery will decorate the sanctuary as the 100-voice choir, the junior choir, the 24-piece Loma Linda Brass Society and the 40-piece sanctuary chamber orchestra present Christmas music for the community. As the choir enters, each carrying a candle, the processional will be played with two harps. Included in the progam will be the reading of the Christmas Story by LLU Medical Center Chaplain Jerry Davis. Three colorful dinators presented nature programs featuring birds, reptiles, and trees. Pathfinders had an opportunity to hold snakes presented by Dr. Anthony Lesis of Loma Linda University. The Pine Springs Ranch staff led the Saturday night campfire program and concluded with an appeal for all to live wholly for Jesus. tableaux scenes enacted by Loma Linda Academy students will be shown during the program through an eight-foot wreath. “This is the big event of the season,” states Director Binkley, “and the auditorium is overcrowded at the 4 o’clock concert. If it is possible to attend the 6 o’clock program, better seats will be available and perhaps everyone can get in,” he concludes. Irwin Campbell, Comm. Secy.

Calkins Young Pastors Get On-the-Job Training in Southern Nearly all Protestant churches ordain their ministers as soon as they complete their seminary training, reported Elder Lynn Mallery of Loma Linda University to a group of ministers in Glendale recently. Seventh-day Adventists are different, though, he said. Ordination is delayed several years after seminary and is a confirmation that a pastor is ministering effectively to the needs of his congregation. To help new ministers develop their pastor skills before ordination, the Southern California Conference, in conjunction with the Pacific Union, has a program of continuing education geared especially to their needs. A committee of young pastors works with Elder John Todoro-vich, ministerial director of the Conference, to plan meetings that will help them in the practical areas of church work. Chairman of the committee currently is Dennis Wallstrom, associate pastor at Temple City. Other members are Monty Knittel of Pasadena, Richard Bernal of Spanish-American, and Richie Carbajal of Central Filipino. Many programs are of a “howto” nature. Elder Miguel Cerna of Burbank Spanish and Pastor Steve King of East Los Angeles At Newbury Park Madrigal Dinners Are Slated Newbury Park Adventist Academy Chorale will hold its third annual Madrigal Dinners on December 8 and 15. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. with the processional starting at 7 p.m. in the academy dining hall-turned-English castle. A processional begins the evening with the academy’s Madrigal Singers dressed in authentic Renaissance costumes singing “Deck the Halls.” An old English feast will be served to the audience. Herald trumpet fanfares will announce the entrance of the wassail bowl and the flaming plum pudding. After the full-course dinner, the guests will be entertained by the Madrigal Singers’ concert of carols and madrigals for the Christmas season. The program will conclude with a recessional as the singers depart through a drawbridge singing “Silent Night.” Tickets are $7 and will go on sale November 15 by mail only. Seats are limited. Checks should be made payable to Music Dept., NPAA, 180 Academy Dr., Newbury Park, CA 91320. spoke on “How To Plan and Conduct Your Own Evangelistic Series.” Elder Mallery discussed “Organizing the Pastor’s Schedule,” and Elder John Rhodes discussed “What To Expect and Plan for During Your First Year as Pastor.” In addition to pre-ordained meetings, young ministers can attend the John W. Osborne Lectureship on preaching. The second annual seminar was held October 29 and 30 at La Sierra with guest speaker Elder James Londis of the Sligo Church in Washington, D.C. A three-day intern-supervisor workshop is held annually to aid senior pastors and interns in developing a cooperative ministry. “The complexities of the age and society we live in demand a degree of skill and professional Rolling Hills proficiency in ministry today that was not demanded of the young minister a generation ago. The Pre-ordained Workers Seminars are structured to help young ministers develop the necessary skills to meet those demands in a practical, professional manner,” says Elder Todorovich. SABBATH SCHOOL MISSIONS For a finished work Church Will Survey Community Hundreds of Palos Verdes Peninsula residents will soon receive a Community Health Survey from the Rolling Hills Church. According to Rolling Hills Pastor Deane Nelson, the survey results will help the Church plan its evangelistic and community outreach. “We define health in a very broad sense, including the physical, mental and spiritual,” says Elder Nelson. The survey will measure residents’ perception of what they can do about their health, especially in the area of preventive medicine such as weight and stress management, and where they would go to seek help or education. The Church is seeking to find out in a very scientific way what the real needs of the community are and whether its people would respond to the kinds of programs the Church could offer, according to Elder Nelson. The Survey Research Service of Loma Linda University will conduct the survey, under the direction of Dr. David Abbey. Local church members and Loma Linda University students will carry out the project. The surevey will be based on a sample of the population of the Palos Verdes Peninsula that will represent the various socioeconomic strata and geographical regions of the community. Pretesting will take place in early December and the actual survey will be conducted in January and February, 1980. Results will be available in mid-summer. gAdventist ^Heritage Putting you in touch with an exciting past The popular Madrigal Dinners at Newbury Park are scheduled for December 8 and 15. fAdventist! Hour KDAR.-FM 983 Each Sabbath 130pm Miramonte Boulevard Church Special Programs To Mark 25th Anniversary Miramonte Boulevard Church will celebrate its 25th anniversary with a week of special programs December 1-8. Under the leadership of Elder William Webb, the church began in 1954 with 40 members. It was an outgrowth of the Normandie Avenue congregation, then known as the Compton Avenue Church. Evangelist Charles Carter was instrumental in building up the church. Originally located on Holmes Avenue, the congregation moved to its present location because of a growing membership. There are now about 300 members. Serving as pastor is Elder James Kyle. Speakers for the 7 p.m. meet- ings will be pastors who have served the Miramonte Boulevard Church during its first quarter century. Included will be Elder Joseph T. Powell on Sunday, Elder Leslie Anderson on Monday, Elder Jackson Doggette, Sr., on Tuesday, Elder Major White on Wednesday, Elder James Melancon on Thursday, and Elder Harvey Kibble on Friday. Sabbath speakers will be Elder William Webb and Elder C. D. Brooks, speaker of the Breath of Life telecast. All members and friends are invited to attend these anniversary programs. The church is located at 7617 Miramonte Boulevard in Los Angeles.

PACIFIC UNION RECORDER / NOVEMBER 26, 1979 5 >^ZOIXFK * Conference Evangelism To Benefit from Offering In an effort to carry on a program of evangelism throughout the Conference, a special offering will be taken in all of the churches of the Nevada-Utah Conference on Sabbath morning, December 8. Rarely a Conference Committee meeting is held without several requests for Conference evangelism funds. Some of these are for modest amounts, but many of Esther Craw Dies October 21 In the recent passing of Esther Marita Fairchild Craw on October 21, 1979, at La Verkin, Utah, death has reached into the worker force of the Nevada-Utah Conference for the second time in one month. Mrs. Craw was very active as a pastor’s wife and was loved and appreciated wherever she went. Her presence at camp meetings and workers meetings, as well as other meetings, always brought cheer and brightness. Over three years ago she and her husband came to the southwestern part of Utah to help establish a new church. She was present when the ground work was laid for the building of the church in La Verkin. She saw the church organized and the house of worship dedicated. She also saw the work expanded. Her heart was one with the work of Adventism in southwestern Utah. Because of this, she worked unhesitantly by the side of her husband, Elder J. B. Craw, in this great pioneer venture. As she saw her life’s race near- Lews Join Truckee Congregation On November 3 the Truckee Adventist Church officially extended the right hand of fellowship to Pat and Norna Lew. They were baptized on October 20 at the Heavenly Valley Adventist church. Pastor Arthur Mitchel led out in the service. Almost one year ago Norna came to a Five-Day Stop Smoking Plan. On the fourth night (family night) her husband attended and was very interested in the spiritual emphasis of the program. He was successful in kicking the habit earlier in life as was Norna in this program. Since then Pat and Norna have Nevada-Utah Conference A. G.

Because of the liberality of members in the Conference, the evangelism fund hasn’t yet been depleted. Thus, so far we have been able to give a positive response to these requests for evangelism funds. Already many requests have ing conclusion, she expressed a desire to be buried next to her home, where the church that she loved so much stands nearby. On the day of her funeral, the La Verkin Seventh-day Adventist church was packed with friends from the community who had learned to love and respect Elder and Mrs. Craw. Her life had taken her from Mount Vernon, Ohio, where she was born, to other parts of this country, and finally to the last place of labor for the cause of God in La Verkin. Today her husband continues his ministry in that community. Esther Craw leaves two sons, Joel and Raymond; a daughter, Verda Westerman; four grandchildren and eight greatgrandchildren; two sisters, Naomi Crandall and Ruth Knecht. We firmly believe she will live again in the land where sickness that took her life will never be known, and where she will wear the victor’s crown. A. G. Streifling, President Nevada-Utah Conf. assisted in two Five-Day Plans, attended a cooking school, a stress clinic and Daniel and Revelation Seminar, plus taken private Bible studies. Both have a keen understanding of the gospel commission and realize the value of the Adventist health message. Norna had her first contact with Adventists when she attended a cooking school in Gardena, California. Darrell Strait Arizona Pastor and Mrs. Steven Hadley been received for help in 1980. Many have been approved; approval of others will be forthcoming. Please help us to provide the funds that will be needed in the months and years ahead by giving a liberal offering on Sabbath, December 8. A. G. Streifling, President Nevada-Utah Conf. Lone Pine Members Ingather $2,120 Lone Pine’s congregation placed second in per capita funds raised for Ingathering in the Ne-। vada-Utah Conference. This year’s efforts totaled $2,120.70 which amounted to $123.70 over what was raised previously. The total was due partly to the efforts of Mrs. Lois Blair, and a small group who assisted her in soliciting the businesses and residents of Lone Pine. Lois’ smile and outgoing personality makes her able to establish contacts with all kinds of people who look forward to her annual Ingathering appeals. They donate cheerfully to this work for humanity. Many people know about the work accomplished through Ingathering and community services, and various Adventist medical institutions. Many people have an opportunity to enroll in Bible Correspondence courses, and also they are told about the TV and radio programs—It Is Written, The Voice of Prophecy and Faith for Today. Lois Blair Hadley Serves Tucson District Steven R. Hadley, Thunderbird Adventist Academy graduate, Class of 1975, has returned to Arizona to begin pastoral ministry. He is associated with Elder Paul Gibson in the Tucson Desert Valley district. Pastor Hadley’s internship began early in July, after graduating from Loma Linda University, Class of 1979. Steve is the son of Elder and Mrs. Lee A. Hadley. His father is director of lay activities and Sabbath school departments in the Arizona Conference. The summer of 1977, Pastor Hadley served as youth assistant on the church staff at Hemet, California. His externship for ministerial studies was done at the Yucaipa Adventist Church. During his senior year at LLU, Steve was president of the student association and assistant to the college chaplain.

Add daily to your Christian experience. . . . Search diligently for perishing souls.” Counsels on Stewardship, 189 The case of Anna Cooper of Kingman illustrates the importance of this instruction. A year ago in December, Anna was depressed, and with the burdens of life mounting and her ability to cope with the stress and frustration withering, her thoughts turned repeatedly to ending it all. She had 60 pills in a bottle which, taken all at once, would do the work. One evening as the urge to use them came with increasing frequency and intensity there was a knock at the door. She opened it and met Lester Sones. Lester was doing house-to-house Ingathering but he sensed a real problem. wold is his wife. They were married June 10, 1979, on the La Sierra Campus. She is a Californian and will be a 1980 graduate of LLU, with a degree in accounting. Mrs. Hadley became a Seventh-day Adventist while studying at Loma Linda University, where she had enrolled because of her appreciation of its conservative reputation and high scholastic program. The church family in Arizona welcomes this dedicated young couple and wishes for them rich blessings in the gospel ministry. E. Frank Sherrill, President Arizona Conference Arizona Conference E. F. Sherrill, president; T. H. Bledsoe, secretary-treasurer; (Box 21147) 322 North 44th St., Phoenix, Arizona 85036. Phone (602) 244-9851. Because he was with a caroling group he spoke words of comfort just briefly, but returned that evening when Ingathering was finished. Realizing Anna’s despair, he referred the case to Pastor Milton Odom, and after five months of visits and Bible studies Anna was baptized and is now thankful to God for His sacrifice for her, for His Church and its people, and for the privilege of life! Then there is the case of Frank and Michele Cimorelli, owners of the Arizona Skate Company on Mill Avenue in Tempe, who had recently moved here from Florida. While going from one business place to another doing Ingathering work, Gladys Baione of the Tempe Church called on the skate company. As she was waiting to talk to Michele, she saw one of Ellen White’s books on a shelf. This became a discussion piece and Gladys learned that the Cimorellis believed in the seventhday Sabbath. Within two weeks Frank met a man from Tempe Community Hospital. In the meantime Gladys had called back, and in January the Cimorellis were convinced that they should begin attending church. They received studies and were baptized in May. Now they’re active in witnessing and sharing their “blessed hope” with students from the campus of Arizona State University. Two others have also been baptized this year, one an adult son of a brother baptized in 1976 from the 1975 campaign, and a collegeage daughter whose mother was found during Ingathering, 1977. Like the ripples from a stone thrown into a pond, the circle of good done by Ingathering year after year grows and widens. Hence the instruction—“Search diligently for perishing souls” is very applicable as Arizonans begin Ingathering work in 1979. Let us follow that counsel, lest others like Anna Cooper “perish.” Lee Hadley, Director Lay Activities Dept. 6 PACIFIC UNION RECORDER / NOVEMBER 26, 1979 fJEI/OI-LTM-l.

With no grades dependent upon their questions—and answers, the students have become more open in their discussion periods. They’re beginning to say that being a Christian is nothing to be bashful about, and they’re building on their own knowledge of Jesus’ love.

Already one older student has asked for baptism. Mission President Shige Arakaki believes this is another way of getting his constituents involved, and “People feel like they belong when they’re involved.” Adventist Book Center The End explains why Adventists speak differently about the “second advent” than Billy Graham and all other Christians. This book answers questions regarding the secret rapture, the place of modern Israel, and why Jesus seems to delay His coming. From the standpoint of the great controversy between Christ and Satan, the author explains why Adventists are special people for a special time. Written by Herbert E.

Woods, vice-president for academic administration. During their visit, the 17 team members will tour both campuses, hold interviews with selected LLU faculty, staff, administrators and students, and meet with the Faculty Senate and the self-study steering committee. “Most good American institutions of higher education are accredited by one of six regional accrediting commissions. The accreditation process requires periodic reviews involving a visit by an evaluation team carefully selected from other colleges and universities,” says Mr. Woods. “Robert K. Thomas, academic vice-president of Brigham Young University, is the chairman of the team coming to LLU. “These people will evaluate the progress we have made in carrying out the recommendations of previous visiting teams, and make LLU Constructs New Buildings Ground was broken in late August at Loma Linda University for the new Del E. Webb Memorial Library which will include a 7,500-square-foot Visitor Center. On the same day, ribboncutting ceremonies for the new Loma Linda Faculty Practice Offices took place. The new 52,500-square-foot library addition was made possible by a $3,850,000 grant from the Del E. Webb Foundation of Phoenix. A gift of an apartment complex from the late Harriett Randall Campbell, MD, which the university sold for approximately $650,000, and two other gifts totaling more than $300,000 from other friends of the university, are making possible the $1,050,000 Visitor Center. The Visitor Center will house eight exhibit areas depicting the whole man, the Holy Scriptures and spiritual man, and the heritage of Loma Linda University. It is anticipated that the center will be open seven days a week. Adjacent to the Visitor Center will be a 320-seat amphitheater which can be divided into two 160-seat auditoriums. The entire library complex is expected to be completed in a year and a half, and will increase total library square footage to 81,959. Located across Barton Road from the Loma Linda University Medical Center, the new Loma Linda Faculty Practice Offices include doctors’ offices, a pharmacy, lab and radiology center. The same physicians operating the Medical Center’s lab and radiology department are coordinating the departments at the new building. The new 83,000-square-foot building was opened to the public September 4. It will serve as an outpatient center for the 175 “geographic” full-time faculty based at the Medical Center. The building actually has facilities for 50 physicians to practice at one time. However, because of differing schedules, 175 are able to use the facilities, says Dean Nelson, executive director of the Loma Linda University Medical Group, Inc. Almost 30,000 square feet of space in the Medical Center is now vacant. A consulting firm has been hired to develop a master plan for utilizing this space in a way that will better serve inpatient needs. The plan should be finished during early 1980. Construction on the outpatient facility began in August of 1977. It was built by the General Conference on their own land, and is being leased to the LLU faculty practice group.

Three laboratories were carved out of a classroom during the summer to provide needed space. Projects in learning and motivation require students to train rats which can then be viewed via the video system. The micro-computer system allows students to test reaction timesand the speed with which decisions are made for general psychology classes.

They will also be checking to be sure we comply with accreditation standards. We are looking to them to point out to us any notable strengths and weaknesses that may significantly affect the education of our students, and to recommend steps we might take to strengthen ourselves. The team will then communicate its findings to the Elder James Londis Speaks for John Osborn Lectureship Series James J. Londis, senior pastor of the Sligo Seventh-day Adventist Church, was the speaker for the second annual John W. Osborn Lectureship in Continuing Education for Ministers held recently at La Sierra. Entitled “The Seventh-day Adventist Church Faces the 80s,” the six lectures attracted over 150 Pacific Union Conference ministers, faculty from the division of religion, and junior and senior ministerial students. Accrediting Commission, which makes the actual decision on accreditation.” The team visit follows an extensive self-study completed within the University during the past year. Results of the self-study were compiled by the Academic Administration office into a 267-page document which has been distributed to the accreditation team members as background for their visit. Former Pacific Union Conference Ministerial Director John Osborn dreamed of a continuing educational program for ministers, beginning in college, extending through the seminary, ministerial internship and throughout ministerial service. After Elder Osborn’s death in 1976, his wife, Marion, proposed that LLU sponsor an annual series of lectures on topics of vital concern to the Adventist ministry, as a way of keeping her husband’s dream alive. Elder Walter F. Specht, professor of religion, and Elder Lloyd Wyman, ministerial director of the Pacific Union Conference, implemented the plan. “Elder Londis emphasized the need for a willingness in Adventist ministers to not only confront the issues, but to get together and study them through,” said Elder Kenneth Vine, dean of the Division of Religion. “He also said that since God has promised to give solutions, answers could be found if ministers would be willing to ask the right questions.” According to Elder Vine, abortion, divorce, world hunger and homosexuality were but some of the problems that Elder Londis felt ministers needed to face. Elder Londis graduated from Atlantic Union College, and received his MA from Andrews University and PhD from Boston University. He has held the post of senior pastor at the Sligo church in Takoma Park, Maryland, since 1975. Besides contributing to These Times and The Adventist Review, he has authored God's Finger Wrote Freedom, a book published this year. 5UF1SET TzeUE Friday, December 7 Alturas 4:33 Loma Linda 4:40 Angwin 4:49 Los Angeles 4:44 Calexico 4:36 Moab 4:57 Chico 4:43 Oakland 4:50 Eureka 4:49 Phoenix 5:20 Fresno 4:43 Reno 4:36 Hilo 5:41 Riverside 4:41 Honolulu 5:49 Salt Lake 5:00 Las Vegas 4:26 San Diego 4:43 Lodi 4:45 San Jose 4:50 PACIFIC UNION RECORDER / NOVEMBER 26, 1979 8 LLU/U3 5ie^4
